I am sorry to learn that soprano Mady Mesplé has died. For years, she was opera’s reigning Lakmé.

You may recall the use of her recording of the “Flower Duet” for a certain airline advertising campaign.

By coincidence, I only just referenced this aria (below) in today’s Classic Ross Amico crossword. You’ll find a link to the puzzle in an earlier post on my Facebook page.

Mesplé was 89 years-old. A more complete appreciation here:
