    Saw him live in 1998. He was ~18 yrs past the prime of his voice, and still brought the house down. He came out for 5 encores. You can’t easily tell the sheer power of a world class opera voice through tv. They sing without microphones & their voices thunder over the symphony in large venues. The beauty of Pavarotti is he actually lived the song/aria emotionally while singing. In operatic performances, he would get emotional while singing about love, pain, joy, loss, etc. Ans you can tell in his eyes the vigor and enjoyment he had in making others smile through the art of opera.

    He had a gift more rare than a great voice: the ability to spread joy and happiness wherever he went. In China, a crowd of children who had never heard of him followed him down the street. Caruso also had that gift.

    With the great John Wustman at the piano! John Wustman was regarded as about the best there was as an accompanist. You see him many times on shows where Pavarotti sings. I got to attend a 2 week workshop for singers and accompanists at Valparaiso University (1986 or '87) and he was a blast to work with. He had a gift: no matter how much he criticized your singing, you couldn't help but smile and enjoy the being around him. He's 93 and still working!

    In addition to his particular timbre of voice which makes him and will remain unique, his technique is truly impressive. Watch at 16.47 how his shirt vibrates on his chest. His whole body resonated and vibrated like a cathedral of sounds. He had other singers put their hands on his back and they felt the vibration of his whole body, which explains his power which seems so natural, but which required a lot of work to tame and master all the internal parts of his body, which are generally not controllable. That's why opera singers are real athletes and why they work a lot. It is also for this reason that amateurs should avoid performing with this kind of singing in TV shows because often they are not trained in these techniques. Luciano will forever remain an incomparable Master, even if many others are equally admirable.

    Here you hear the voice of LP in its prime. The easy flowing emission of tone, clarity of diction. He makes it look effortless. He studied seriously the technique. I heard him on 3 occasions. The recital at Covent Garden in 1977 I think it was, was an experience. He stayed and signed autographs till very late. Such great memories.

    May the Lord Jesus Christ God and His Holy Ghost bless Mr Pavarotti for having the openness and honesty to say Who he believes in.
    It does not look as if it came from a place meant to impose on other people.
    I often wonder if people judge me when I say I am a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, when what I seek to do is not to force anybody to know what I know. Above all, all I want to do is to openly say "Jesus Christ is the Lord and God, I serve Him and I follow Him".
    If my life or speech or anything I do happens to point someone to consider the Lord Jesus Christ and His life and His words I would consider it a high honour, but it is not I who accomplished something.
    May the Lord be praised!
