YAY!

I attended a talk he gave to the London Wagner Society in I think, 2018. Besides being a real Heldentenor he is very interesting and thoroughly likeable gentleman with a lively sense of humour, who at the end of the meeting, stayed for a sandwich and glass of wine, and was willing to speak one-to-one with anyone. He was clearly amused when I told him of a critic - Andrew Porter? - wrote that his high C in Gotterdammerung could have sent Mario del Monaco running for cover!

Music first, theatre second!!?? I think the Meister might have something to say about that. 🤔
