It is with deep sadness that I found out today that Patricia Janeckova has passed away at 25. I absolutely loved her singing and acting, she was so dedicated and sung so beautifully.

One wonderful selection showing her immense talent.

She will be sorely missed.

So true Wayne. Below is a reaction by Elizabeth Zharoff, professional
soprano, of Patricia. I have learned so much about singing from Elizabeth.

Elizabeth comments "young rising superstar" and more. I noticed
that Patricia's voice remains fleshy no matter how high of a note she
sings, yet I would not call her a mezzo soprano, but that is just my
opinion.

Elizabeth notes Patricia's acting as well as singing ability.
Personally, I like Patricia better than Maria Callas, whose voice can
become a little brittle at times imo.

One other note. I just saw a video of Patricia holding a YT award, and
she was so appreciative of the audience, not arrogant, but very humble.
That was priceless.

I can't claim to be much of an opera fan, so I'm not readily familiar with her work. I listened to the video you posted, positron, and it's clear that she was incredibly gifted. How sad that she's gone at such a young age.

Seems to follow the Billy Joel song, Only the Good Die Young. A sad example of a promising life cut short. Along the lines of opera, which I too don't follow is this Polish fellow that I heard about this morning on NPR. The Polish opera-break dancer. Two very polar opposites that this young dude has mastered. Just interesting.
