Happy Birthday, dearest Maestro @PlacidoDomingo ! 👑 ❤️❤️❤️

🎉 8️⃣💎💎💎💎💎🎂

[Katerina Waldersee @KWaldersee]

Memories from a summer night in Spain in which @PlacidoDomingo told the story of his life in song. A goodbye wave at the open-air concert in Castellón after opera, zarzuela, musicals, Neapolitan songs, Austrian operetta and tango in four languages with Maria Jose Siri conducted by Leonardo Sini. Always courteous with everyone, Domingo shook hands with members of the Orchestra Simfònica de Castellón and thanked them for playing. A group bow at the end of the performance after which the public clamoured "otra, otra", hoping for another encore. Domingo and colleagues obliged of course with a joint rendition of "Granada". Congratulations for
another high-spirited evening in Spain!

The love of a woman is what spurs him on in his political fight, Vidal explains to his comrades. "I'm not asking anyone for a reward as long as I can fullfil my dream that her love will not fail me. The ideal behind my ambition is the love of the woman I adore." @PlacidoDomingo , the world's most compelling and authentic Vidal, singing a romanza from Federico Moreno Torroba's "Luisa Fernanda" in Guadalajara, Mexico, where he used to sing with his parents before he started his own career.

The full moon over Arena di Verona and a young tenor whose operatic star rose to extraordinary heights on his debut in Italy and in the role of Calaf 57 years ago today. @PlacidoDomingo aged only 28 appeared with the legendary Birgit Nilsson as Turandot in what he has called one of the most magical moments of his career on 16th July, 1969. Year after year he returned to new triumphs in the arena, becoming a household name in the town. For his 55th anniversary in 2024 which he celebrated with a magnificent "Spanish night" the full moon shone again just like at his debut. Congratulations to the brightest star in our operatic firmament with his rendition of "Nessun dorma" in Verona in 1975, after which the public clamoured for an encore.

The strength of opera lies in the vulnerability of its characters not the prowess of the singing, says @PlacidoDomingo . "The profound humanity of the characters I have interpreted has always fascinated me," the singer said in his latest interview ahead of a concert in Castelló on 26th July, his fourth this year in his home country, Spain. "The voice is a very delicate instrument," Domingo told "El Periódico Mediterráneo". "We can't keep it locked away, it's part of us and changes with us." With more than 150
operatic roles to his credit the great Maestro is legendary not just for the depth of his understanding of the characters and the beauty of his voice but also his uncanny ability to appear totally convincing in any role. "I preserve memories of marvellous roles I interpreted so many times like Otello, Cavaradossi, Don José or Siegmund," he said. "They're all inextricably linked to the memory of magnificent colleagues, conductors, musicians and directors who all made opera history." Judging by the ovations and full houses in his 60-year career, Domingo's approach to opera has the public's full approval too.

With soccer fever growing as the World Cup enters its final stages, enjoy this memory from 1982 when the tournament was held in Spain. The passion and festivity of the song "El Mundial" performed by @PlacidoDomingo who, luckily for the opera world replaced childhood dreams of becoming a soccer player with a glorious musical career but still remains football-mad. Toi toi toi for Spain in this year's semi-final!

A heartwarming homage when @PlacidoDomingo returned to watch a baseball game at the stadium in Los Angeles which had been the scene of one of the most iconic concerts of The Three Tenors. "Welcome back to Dodger Stadium, opera singer Plácido Domingo," said a tannoy announcement as the smiling Spanish star waved to the crowds. The concert during the Soccer World Cup in 1994 had brought the tenors' musical magic to the United States and millions all over the world after the massive success of their first show in Rome in 1990. The announcement recounted how the tenors honoured Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly, both of whom had been present in the audience.
Three cheers for our favourite singer and for Dodger Stadium.
