Undated, unsigned comment[edit]

This page is in severe need of updating to include his recent notable recordings and appearances including his Don Giovanni's in Europe and the wonderfully successful Thaïs with Fleming

Young, tall and handsome — is this relevant where it is stated?[edit]

Is the fact that he was "young, tall and handsome" (beginning of the third paragraph) relevant? The text seems to be hinting coyly at some salacious relationship with Leonard Bernstein: it seems to me that the rumours (if rumours there be) ought to be spelt out or the hint of rumours ought to be removed. What do others think? Ondewelle (talk) 00:11, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you.TomyDuby (talk) 03:24, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of any other comments, I shall change the text. Ondewelle (talk) 14:36, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Koite, 28 May 2012. Since an article about Martial Singher (teacher of Hampsom) is now existing in the Wikipedia, there should be a link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.155.181.72 (talk) 12:58, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article is rather over embellished with promotional comments, such as "a pre-eminent classical singer". It should be more encyclopaedicRoyalcourtier (talk) 07:51, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox request[edit]

Why does it state in the article Please don't add an Infobox per Wikiproject:Oprea#Infobox? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CookieMonster755 (talk • contribs) 01:12, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Details[edit]
