Luciano Pavarotti: Career in pictures
Luciano Pavarotti's recent announcement that he is to retire in 2005 - on his 70th birthday - heralds the end of an extraordinary career as an operatic tenor.
Pavarotti, here in a recent production of Tosca, has lost some of his vocal range in recent years
He has made a career of both recitals and operatic roles
With the Three Tenors he brought operatic arias to millions of new fans
Duets with pop stars like Elton John have earned him popularity - and criticism
He was devastated when his mother died, and attended the funeral with his brother Ferdinando (left)
The Three Tenors are to hold their final concert, at the 2002 World Cup
