Death of a Nessun Dorma tenor, 59

Friends are reporting the death from a heart attack of Paul Charles Clarke, an international English tenor.

Hailing from Liverpool, he won the Kathleen Ferrier prize and went on to sing abroad at Dallas Opera, Minnesota, Santa Fe, Monte Carlo, Hamburg, Frankfurt and the Salzburg Festival. He was in great demand for popular concerts. On home turf, beside the Mersey, he sang Summer Pops in the Docks.
