Richard Hickox barely had time to adjust to the time difference before he walked into his first industry controversy.
"I'm sorry that I have to spend my first morning in Australia defending the company," the newly appointed music director of Opera Australia said yesterday.
Hickox, who officially begins his tenure at the company when he conducts a gala concert at the Opera House on New Year's Eve, was responding to claims by some of the stars of the critically acclaimed production of the Ring cycle that they will be forced to go overseas because of lack of work here.
