it comes to us all eventually. He did a lot to bring classical singing back into popular culture.

He could hold a note and a pastie in each hand!
A great talent.

He did a couple of appearances at Llangollen Eisteddfod - not a million miles from here. I heard a couple of folks involved there who didn`t like the chap at all, but his talent was never disputed. And you can`t please everyone all the time. He had a nasty form of Cancer, I just hope his symptoms were well-controlled and that he didn`t suffer long. That`s all I could say for anyone however great or lowly, in those circumstances.

I personally preferred that Welsh fella ... Bryn Terfel. I liked Edgar Evans as well.

He had a few detractors here in Chicago as well. Seems a few last minute cancellations made some serious and powerful enemies here. Sad if his absence was because of the ailment though...
