Luciano Pavarotti, Knight Grand Cross (luˈtʃaːno pavaˈrɔtti; October 12, 1935-September 06, 2007) was an Italian operatic tenor who also performed popular music. Dubbed the "King of the high C's" for the quality of his tone[1][2], Pavarotti is one of the most acclaimed tenors of the 20th Century. He released numerous opera recordings, as well as collections of individual arias, eventually becoming one of the most commercially successful tenors of all time.

Pavarotti began his professional career in 1961 as a tenor in Italy. He was most highly regarded for his performances in bel canto operas, pre-Aida Verdi roles, and Puccini works such as La bohème, Tosca, Turandot, and Madama Butterfly. As one of the Three Tenors, Pavarotti became famous for his televised concerts and media appearances, beginning with a concert during the 1990 FIFA World Cup. He has sold over 100 million records worldwide[3], and the Three Tenors' debut album is the best selling classical album to date[4]. Pavarotti was also noted for his charity work on behalf of refugees and the Red Cross, among other organizations. Pavarotti gave his final performance at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, singing "Nessun dorma"[5]. He died on September 06, 2007.
