pavarotti-160.jpgTenor Luciano Pavarotti morre aos 71 anos

Nascido em 1935, o tenor teve um pai banqueiro que gostava de cantar e uma mãe que trabalhava em uma fábrica de cigarros. As pessoas de Modena, uma cidade provincial ao norte da Itália, ficaram de luto pela morte de um homem que permaneceu ligado a suas raízes mesmo sendo um superstar.

I was reading Reuters’story about Pavarotti’s death at Brazilian Yahoo and realized, that Pavarotti’s father’s profession had been translated from “baker” to “banker,” giving a completely different background for the famous tenor.

Yes. We corrected: GBU Editor

One comment so far

Well, he was a voice.
How many othere better voices than him did not get his luck?

Arrogant, he was.

Yes, he did many for charity, But not with his own money.

Unfortunately, it seems he was better than any other Italian who simply do his own job, just a different one…

I feel that we are bringing him so high in a mistake.

As a man, he was not so excellent…

The same old story about “to look like VS to be like”…

Bye.
