Soprano icon Montserrat Caballé is planning a farewell tour when she turns 80 in 2013. The Spanish press reports she made the announcement at the press conference Monday for the Fifth “International Monserrat Caballé Singing Contest” to be held in Zaragoza, Spain from September. ”I will have sung for 56 years (she debuted at the Liceo de Barcelona on January 7, 1962)” she announced and “my thought is to do a farewell tour in the places I have sung” she said. She would have to be selective, she observed, considering she would not have time to visit them all. Her 80th birthday will be April 12, 2013.
