Pavarotti dead at 71

I will, with sadness, note that the tenor Luciano Pavarotti has died of pancreatic cancer. He was 71 and probably the greatest tenor of his generation (source)

This is timeless ...

Thank you, John. It was so much gentler for me to hear it from you than from some empty talking head on television.

This is the voice that can change my heart rate several times in one aria. I'm glad I hold it captive in recordings. I'm sorry a great singer is now gone.

It was great saddness that I learned of Pavarotti's passing. A fantastic voice has been stilled. I to have it captured in many recordings. This was the man and voice that awakened my love for the opera and for that I will always be greatful. His leagacy will live on into the furture for all time.
