Opera giant Luciano Pavarotti, the Italian tenor died early Thursday at age 71, projected his formidable tenor voice far beyond the hallowed halls of opera houses, popularising his art along with Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras or in unexpected duos with James Brown or Sting.'I opened the doors of music to everyone,' he once said.'My voice makes people happy, it's my pride, my responsibility.' Hailed by many as the greatest tenor of his generation, Pavarotti passed away during the night at his villa near the city of Modena after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
