Joan Sutherland 1926 -2010
Let the bright Seraphim in
burning row their loud uplifted
angel-trumpets blow.
Let the cherubic host, in tuneful
choir, touch their immortal
harps with golden wire.
Let the bright Seraphim in
burning row their loud uplifted
angel-trumpets blow
Through the mercy of God may she rest in peace and join the Saints in praising him forever.

Amen, Father : she had a fine voice, and a proper devotion to the God Who gave it to her.
May she rest in peace, and rise in glory.
A beautiful combination of a tribute and prayer.
We Australians are often accused or accuse ourselves,or by expats such as Greer and Robertson,of having no culture . However seeing as Australia produced Nellie Melba,Peter Dawson,Eileen Joyce and Dame Joan Sutherland- God Bless her soul- it would seem that after all we do have some.
