One of the greatest opera singers of all time Luciano Pavarotti has died aged 71.
He would be more known for his performance singing Nessun Dorma at the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy.
He also sang Nessun Dorma" at the 2006 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony in Turin, Italy.
He will be sadly missed in the world of opera and the music industry as he was always among the stars.
"Quote" I think a life in music is a life beautifully spent
and this is what I devoted my life to.
RIP ... |

| He will be missed as a person but his legacy of making Opera understood by everyone will never be forgotten - Personally I feel he was 'Unique' and there will not be another like him :( |

I don't like opera but as a music fan i truly respect his achievements and passion.
The crossover success he had in bringing opera to the masses and in the "pop" charts was a unique achiement and you could even say he was the Elvis or the Motzart of opera. |
