Quote of the Week- Luciano Pavarotti




Today, we feature a quote from the late opera star Luciano Pavarotti who actually sang a duet with Lou Reed (?!) on Reed's famous song "Perfect Day."

We dedicate today's entry to students at Northampton High School in Northampton, Mass., where Nancy Athas is principal and the school nickname is The Blue Devils. But, we really love the school newspaper's name "The Devil's Advocate."

Here is our quote from the star of "Yes Giorgio:"

"Learning music by reading about it is like making love by mail."

SIDEBAR: We missed Moscow, Idaho's favorite son Josh Ritter, a great singer if you get a chance to see him, when he was in Greenville, SC, last week. But Ritter is going to next perform at El Sol in Madrid, Spain, on Sept. 9. He returns to the states for a show in Oberlin, Ohio, on Sept. 25. And, citizens of Northampton, Mass., can see him at The Calvin Theatre on Oct. 23.
