"Here we must say farewell."
The opera world and our shared world cultural zeitgeist lost a true artist on November 22.
Dmitri Hvorostovsky was a Russian baritone of incomparable beauty and depth.
Growing up in an Italian family, I was exposed to opera at an early age, and it was always a part of our family's cultural life. I have carried that love of opera all through my adult life, and, therefore, kept a keen interest in the world of opera.
Here is Hvorostovsky performing from Don Carlos and other operas. He will be missed.

What an amazing voice!
I'm sure he'll be sadly missed.
Wow.
Yes, KanaW, he will be missed. Such a tragedy.
I hadn't seen him before, but after your post I binge-watched everything I could find on Youtube. I was enthralled.
I've been binge-watching as much as I can find on YouTube as well. Breaks my heart.
