Customer Reviews:
Don't listen to the nay-sayersDecember 26, 2008 dee1153(Shreveport, LA USA) This is a lovely CD and Pavarotti is wonderful on it. The duet with Lionel Richie is worth the price of the CD alone, not to mention the ones with Celine, Mariah, Sting and Elton, etc. "Miserere" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and the rendition with the Maestro and Zucchero is spectacular. So powerful.
Don't listen to the negative reviews. They're probably some other tenor's fans trying to sabotage it. It was #1 on Billboard and is still #2 on the charts, so evidently, it's good. In fact, it's excellent.

Just listened to this CD for the first time. Gawd, what over-inflated nonsense. Over-inflated, overstuffed, overblown, overproduced, over-emoted -- the list goes on and on. One more crashing crescendo, and I'm out the window.
Pavarotti DuetsDecember 20, 2008 Beat Mertz not as good as anticipated, too many duets...da, I know they're duets but seemed too much less desirable ones.
Something for everyoneDecember 20, 2008 Lucy E. Farrell(IN USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful CD, one that everyone, regardless of age, will enjoy. A lasting memory of Pavoratti and his versatility as well as that of those he sings with. Would highly recommend this to anyone!
