Have admired them both for a long time. These are among the list of singers who should never grow old and retire. Thank goodness for Utube and recordings in general. Both can act and move well on the stage as well as sing magnificently.
Haha... David Daniels i love you. Hilarious closing comment!!
I believe this was their final appearance at the Met. I never saw Dessay live (was never a fan) but did see Daniels in 2001 in recital. He was a knockout...and was sooo cute back then.
In the Fall of 2018, Daniels was placed on leave with the University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance after allegations of sexual assault. Following the allegations, a second student accused Daniels of sexual assault, and brought civil lawsuits against both Daniels and the University of Michigan, in October 2018. In response to the second lawsuit, Daniels filed a counter-claim, saying that the charges were "fake and malicious". Shortly after Daniels' counterclaim, the lawsuit against Daniels was dismissed. However, the lawsuit against the University of Michigan remained in effect. Following this, the San Francisco Opera removed Daniels from its 2019 production of Orlando "after considerable deliberation given the serious allegations of sexual assault". In January 2019, Texas filed charges of second-degree sexual assault against Daniels and his husband, who were then arrested in Ann Arbor, Michigan. On March 26, 2020, at the recommendation of U-M President Mark Schlissel and in a unanimous vote by the Board of Regents, Daniels was dismissed from U-M effective immediately and without severance pay.
And he is pleaded guilty as of 8/4/2023.

They put a little grey on the dyed hair? LOL
