- <p> So long, La Stupenda, and goodbye again. It's hard for
- Australia's Dame Joan Sutherland, 64, to say addio to opera,
- so she did it twice. The first time was in Sydney last October,
- and last week in London she bade a New Year's Eve farewell to
- her international career where it began 38 years ago. At the
- Royal Opera House, the diva was a party guest in Act II of Die
- Fledermaus, along with Luciano Pavarotti. Sutherland cautioned
- that "the old voice is winding down," but the party wasn't over
- until she sang a final, glistening Home Sweet Home.
