No further details are presently available.

The Romanian-born soprano Ana Maria Labin writes: ‘We all have that extraordinary person that crosses one’s path and has that impact that would change your life forever…As a musician, singer, woman and human being I wouldn’t have been who I am today without Franca Courtin. She was my very first singing teacher … Ever since she remained my mentor, spiritual animal and friend. I miss you so much!! Will see you later with the angels! Love to her family and friends…may you rest in peace.’
