Placido Domingo has dedicated his entire life to Opera & its development. He has strongly denied the allegations, a vile smear campaign by AP & force behind it. The real soul-searching should be on the false morality and lack of courage of US companies to stand with their true friend & colleague.

Please read the article summarizing Placido Domingo's recent interview where he forcefully rejected the allegations against him:

I searched online but apparently the Met Opera Radio channel has not yet banned works in which Domingo sings or conducts. When it banned conductor Levine, the decision was quick. I believe the allegations, but I don't think I can bring myself to turn away from every allegedly misogynistic creep in the arts.
