Placido Domingo wants to conduct at Bayreuth: Domingo will in Bayreuth den Taktstock schwingen. (And is La Cieca the only one who thinks that headline sounds like the first line of a Lieder text?) One presumes that on the dark night between Siegfried and Goetterdaemmerung, Domingo will jet to Los Angeles to sing a quick performance of Il Postino, then hop a red-eye back to the Green Hill. La Cieca’s prediction: Domingo will not retire until human cloning is perfected.
