The King of the High C's Has Sailed Away
Categorized under Música , Salud | Tags: Luciano Pavarotti, music
LUCIANO PAVAROTTI, a name I remember being spoken with great awe since I was a young boy, has died, at 71 years old.
Pavarotti, the literally and figuratively larger-than-life tenor whose recordings sold more than 100 million albums, and whose voice boomed everywhere from the Metropolitan Opera to Johnny Carson's Tonight Show, died at 5 a.m. Thursday morning, local time, at his home in Modena, Italy, after a yearlong battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 71.
Go with the strongest and sweetest of your notes, Señor Pavarotti--deep into that melody that is always being played, sung, or dreamed...somewhere in this wild and wonderful world. Salud!

I was wondering if you were going to salute the Master, and I can only add that I had thought he had left the hospital and would be around a while. I was not ready for the departure. Adios Maestro.
