Undated, unsigned comment

Young, tall and handsome — is this relevant where it is stated?
editIs 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)
- I agree with you.TomyDuby (talk) 03:24, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

- 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)
