Synopsis

Amazon.com
This recording marks ground zero of the Three Tenors phenomenon and reminds you of all that it was supposed to be. There's only one tenor here--Luciano Pavarotti--and because he's partnered by different voice types--soprano Joan Sutherland and mezzo-soprano Marilyn Horne-- the possibilities of substantial artistic collaboration are much greater. Though this event was heavily hyped and would've driven audiences wild no matter what, the singers use the concert as an occasion to do things they'd never do on the opera stage, such as the Sutherland-Pavarotti duet from Otello. In their prime, they were one of the great operatic teams, as were Sutherland and Horne. And this concert gives ample evidence why. It's essential for fans of these singers. --David Patrick Stearns

CD Reviews

Where is the rest of it?
J. Luis Juarez Echenique | Mexico City | 02/13/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"When DECCA issued this recording in the LP era it came in 2 LPs and COMPLETE. I have no idea who decided to omit the arias but it was a big, BIG mistake. Horne sang a terrific "Mura felici" from la Donna del Lago that alone would be worth the price of a double album. Sutherland sang the aria from I Masnadieri and Pavarotti the unmissable aria from La Bohéme. I really hope one day (sooner than later) DECCA will reissue this concert COMPLEEEEETEEEEEE!!!!"
Operatic Concert of the Century

"This was dubbed the Concert of the Century and captured Pavarotti and Horne in their prime. As some have suggested, Dame Joan may have been past her prime, but her voice was still strong and brilliant."
Mixed truimph!

"If you are a fan of Pavorotti and Horne, buy this CD. But if you are a fan of Dame Joan, you will be very disappointed. Sutherland is already way past her prime years of 1956-1976. Her wide vibrato is and pitch problems are particularly troublesome."
