Beverly Sills, 1929-2007

Beverly Sills died today. I heard that she was sick only two days ago. I don't even remember who told me. This has been a hard year already. Two opera giants in three months.

The New York Times has a lovely article here.

She brought opera into our mainstream culture. I fear there's no one to fill her shoes in that respect.
