Quote:
Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti has died, his manager has announced.
The singer, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year, died at his home in the northern city of Modena, at the age of 71.
He had been admitted to hospital in Modena on 8 August with a fever. He was released two weeks later following diagnostic tests.
Pavarotti had cancer surgery in July 2006 in New York, and had not made any public appearances since then.
