Italian Tenor Pavarotti Dies at Age 71

By ALESSANDRA RIZZO

ROME (AP) - Luciano Pavarotti, whose vibrant high C's and ebullient showmanship made him the most beloved and celebrated tenor since Caruso and one of the few opera singers to win crossover fame as a popular superstar, died Thursday. He was 71.

His manager, Terri Robson, told the AP in an e-mailed statement that Pavarotti died at his home in Modena, Italy, at 5 a.m. local time. Pavarotti had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year and underwent further treatment in August.

Sorry to hear of his passing. I'm not a fan of opera, but I did listen to his duet with Sheryl Crow ("la ci darem") quite often. R.I.P. Luciano

RIP Luciano Pavarotti

I remember he was so broken up about Diana's death that he couldn't sing at ther funeral.

I think they are both in heaven now.... :(
