The Aussie accent is awesome, I wish he'll sing Britten in Aussie some day.

So unfair. I show up in Australia and NZ, and he's nowhere to be found. I leave, and there he is!

[Despina]

Whatever happend to his hair? I hope his pecs and abs aren't missing, too.. Well, judging from the second video, he's still a really hot "Don G"

[Donna Anna]

Did he and Isobel Leonard split up already? He's spending lots of time in Australia and she was in Santa Fe this summer and at the Met last month.

Pecs, abs, hair and BSD aside, is anyone else concerned with the really unidiomatic Italian in the Champagne aria? He cannot manage one clearly articulated "devi aumentar", eliding it all into a "devimentar" until the very last one. The entire delivery of the aria is sort of rough, hectored, breathy and shouted.

AFAICT, TTR and IL are still together, if this blog entry from Operavore is anything to go by.
