On #3, I'm pretty sure there's other mentions of opera when appropriate in the book. :) Thanks for checking in and posting a comment! Hi Barbara - I don’t know the answers to 1 and 2.

Just a couple of questions on this topic: 1. Do you know if his annual charity concert will be continued in his memory? If yes, who will organize it, etc.? 2. Do you know if a scholarship, etc. will be set up to honour him both for his humanitarian work and his musical legacy? 3. Have you mentioned elsewhere Mr. Hewson's fondness of opera? I believe Bono often sings a particular song in tribute/memory of his father. [Sorry, momentarily forgotten the name of the song.] I'm looking forward to contributing to your project and to reading your book. Best wishes to you. Hi Matt,

What a lovely and touching tribute to Mr. Pavarotti.
Just a couple of questions on this topic:

1. Do you know if his annual charity concert will be continued in his memory? If yes, who will organize it, etc.?

2. Do you know if a scholarship, etc. will be set up to honour him both for his humanitarian work and his musical legacy?

I’m looking forward to contributing to your project and to reading your book. Best wishes to you.

Sure enough, Bono was part of 3 songs. I went back through the news reports from the concert, and even those only mentioned the two performances. So the book has been fixed. May I get your name and credit you for the help you provided? Great find, OptimaX. Sure enough, Bono was part of 3 songs.

It's from the same show as the Ave Maria performance mentioned in this article. Why is this song not mentioned in the article? Could it be that they didn't perform One but Miserere instead?

Good catches! This is all unedited/unproofed text for now. I'm most concerned about content than perfect wording at this point, but it will be gone over with a fine-tooted comb, both by me and the Editor at Omnibus. Thx, Dana. Good catches!

In the first entry the following sentance needs some editing: When the program airs on TV, it begins with an introduction by actor Liam Neeson provides and introduction, and closes with U2’s video for the song “Miss Sarajevo.” Also in the last entry it should say pancreatic cancer not pancreas cancer. If you need a proof reader I'll be happy to volunteer. :D Dana Very nice tribute. In the first entry the following sentance needs some editing:
