NEW YORK - Opera singer Placido Domingo apologized to the women who have accused him of sexual harassment on Tuesday after an investigation by the American Guild of Musical Artists concluded he had behaved inappropriately with female performers.
“I respect that these women finally felt comfortable enough to speak out, and I want them to know that I am truly sorry for the hurt that I caused them,” he said. The union declined to make public its full report. Its board of governors will take “appropriate action,” the union statement said. Union spokeswoman Alicia Cook declined to discuss what action it would take regarding Domingo.
Following the report, Domingo resigned as general manager of the Los Angeles Opera and pulled out of performing the title role in Verdi’s “Macbeth” at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. The Teatro Real in Madrid and the Royal Opera House in London confirmed that Domingo would still appear on their stages for “La Traviata” and “Don Carlo” this year. Milan’s Teatro alla Scala, where Domingo is scheduled to sing in “La Traviata” in November, declined to comment.
