Why is it that all my "icons" are dying off, one by one?
My first "encounter" with Luciano Pavarotti was in Vicenza, Italy, circa 1973. It was via the spectacular recording of "Turandot" with Joan Sutherland, conducted by Zubin Mehta. Many, many, MANY bottles of cabernet have been consumed over these 34 years listening to the glories of that recording...on LP, cassette and CD.
Ciao, Luciano. And thanks, especially, for your spectacular opening ceremonies performance at the Torino Olympics.
