Placido Domingo sings London's praises
Of course, there is the voice which is still special even if he is some years past collecting a bus pass. But everyone who meets him adores him, too. Staff relish telling you how he knows the doorkeepers, remembers everyone’s names, looks at family photos and has his make-up done with everyone else and not alone in his own dressing room. And he has a knack of making something sound like a compliment when it is questionable whether it really is – but with no sense of being snide.
