None shall sleep....

Doubtless, in the manner of most things these days, the life and work of Luciano Pavarotti will be deconstructed over the next few months, and his failings - of which there were many - will be mercilessly highlighted. But for today, let us just remember the voice - certainly in his prime (say twenty or so years ago) among the greatest tenor voices of all times. Thank goodness that we are left with a treasury of his recordings. He was a big man in all senses.
