Hugues Cuenod's birthday
Labels:
music news
Tenor Hugues Cuenod is celebrating his 105th birthday. His remarkably longevity included his voice, he kept on singing well into old age. I remember seeing him as M. Taupe in Strauss's Capriccio at Glyndebourne in the old house. He has just got married, regularising his 20-year old relationship with Alfred Augustin, something possible now that Swiss law has changed.
