Music history experience!

Previously unheard of. The great three tenors of our time together against the historical backdrop of the Baths of Caracalla in Rome. It was a mild summer evening on which this concert was held on the occasion of the football World Cup in Italy. This concert was and is, from a commercial perspective, but at least as from a musical point of view, a complete success. It is to hear the voices of Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras a real pleasure. They sing the famous arias as "Recondita Armonia", "E lucevan le stelle" or "Nessun Dorma", and finally a medley of famous songs, such as "Memory", "Tonight", "Mattinata", "La Vie en rose "," Wien, Wien, nur du allein "or" O Sole Mio ". I would say that the select few there had the unique opportunity a piece of music history "live" witness. And this we can to CD / DVD too! "Nessun Dorma" from the opera "Turandot" by Puccini, was first sung by Pavarotti alone - you get really goosebumps, because it's so fantastically heard sing this incomparable piece of this brilliant voice. As a final encore, it is sung encore and has been wearing that night no longer just the title of "Nessun Dorma", but also "Vincero", due to the last few bars where it to high "H" goes up (which is quite high! !!) and the text only from the words Vincero (I will win!) is. To my mind, this concert on CD and DVD, a great cross-section and it allows people who previously might have with the opera or classical music does not start over as much to get started, and the enthusiasm for this kind of music to discover. Of course you can also at this appearance to criticize, but one should not simply times try the superb performance of the singers, the conductor and the orchestra, to appreciate the quality of this recording and the whole concert? I believe there is no better example of how to make music accessible to everyone and not as common in classical music and the opera is the case, only a select circle. I wish all who opt for this concert very much fun at this recording! It is worthwhile in any case!
