    Kaufmann on the music industry

    This caught my eye - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/m...tastrophe.html

    I am partly interested as I have a Jonas Kaufmann CD in my "save for later" basket at am.uk, and one day I'm going to knock it into purchase mode - probably around Christmas time as a present.

    Kaufmann is the pre-eminent voice of a generation. In 2013 I saw him in a Gala concert to mark the bicentennial of Wagner’s birth at Semper Oper, Dresden with the Staatskapelle Dresden under Christian Thielemann. His magnificent performance of Wagner scenes and arias will live long in the memory.

        No, he isn’t very old, he's dead. He died in 1883 aged 69. Didn’t you know?
