Subject: RE: Obit: Dame Joan Sutherland
"Die Fledermaus" is such a great one to allow the performers leeway for humor and improv. I love that story!

Here's hoping the local classical station will pull out some of her performances in coming weeks and days. I'd love to revisit her work. She had a fabulous voice, one of the best ever. And she purposely quit while she was on top, so that remains her legacy.
