A tenor like no other

Luciano Pavarotti passed away yesterday.

I was very shocked when I learnt of the news.

I felt a kind of heartache that a great man who brought opera to the masses has gone away, never coming back. Though I didn't concentrate on his music while he was alive, he was well-known and well-received and...sigh. =(

I saw a clip regarding his funeral and while the pallbearers were carrying his casket into a church in Modena, the crowd clapped as a form of respect. How much people love him.

I'll want to visit Modena, Italy and the church and pay my respects to this legendary opera singer.

Addio Maestro.
