Keenlyside's Front Side


The request for photos generated some interesting emails. Even though I didn't get much of what I was looking for, I did receive some great future material (including one from a British baritone that I could never post, but thanks for the candid shot!). I figured that these shots of Simon Keenlyside deserved immediate posting, especially since I'm on a Don Giovanni kick.

  1. Looks pretty good for a guy who just had his 49th birthday.

  2. The top photo at least is from a previous run, I think. Last night I was waiting for my Tube train home (at Pimlico station FWIW) and I noticed a bloke taking a photograph of the poster advertising this production, including this top photo. I have never previously seen anyone photographing an advert at any Tube Station, so it intrigued me...

  4. Is he really 49? What's amazing is that he's not just a barihunk, he can actually sing and he's not boring like Nathan Gunn!

    Thanks for the post.

  5. Saw Don Giovanni last night with a superb cast. Mr K was absolutely brilliant and looks magnificent nude - quick but clear full frontal at the very end. Excellent also was barihunk Kyle Ketelsen as Leporello, and junior barihunk Robert Gleadow as Masetto
