Notes & Reviews:

Personnel: Luciano Pavarotti (tenor); Elton John (vocals).

No one in the opera world has really ever matched the popularity of the late Luciano Pavarotti. Having sold millions of records and broken box office records, Pavarotti is known the world over, and this collection, released in 2006, is a fine introduction to the tenor's best performances. Featuring "Volare," "Funiculi, Funicula," "Mamma," and "Nessun Dorma," this "hits" collection will whet any appetite looking to discover the world of mainstream opera. ~ Chris True
