'a must have' Great Christmas Music, heavy on the Carreras,
By jebaer "jebaer" (Oklahoma City, OK USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carreras / Domingo / Pavarotti: Christmas Favorites from the World's Favorite Tenors (Audio CD)
I hate that phrase 'must have' but this applies for fans of the 3 tenors or anyone who's tired of the same old Christmas music. Includes the typical stuff like Jingle Bells (listen for Carreras' phrasing 'one horse op-en sleigh') and I'll Be Home for Christmas (Domingo). Also fun (or painful, depending your viewpoint) is Carreras' 'Joy to the World' and phrasing 'Let heaven and nat-ure sing'(this is an early version obviously). But songs like Navidad (Carreras), La Virgin Lava Panales (Domingo)and Mille Cherubini (Carreras again) are beautiful and have not been covered to death like most Christmas songs. Silent Night in 3 languages is pretty awesome too. What made this CD for me was Carreras' 'Guten Abend, Gut Nacht' a lullaby. It lulled my dog to sleep. And he's a Pavarotti fan.

I love Christmas music. I try to listen to as much Christmas music as I can get my hands on. I purchased this CD after enjoying Placido Domingo singing "In Pace" on Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET and the Christmas album with Michael Bolton and Ying Huang. Unfortunately for me, the 3 Tenors Christmas CD is what you might call too much of a good thing. After awhile I was needing to hear a lady's voice accompaniment or perhaps a children's choir. These three men are very talented and very good at what they do, but an entire Christmas album with only them may seem rather monotonous to some listeners.

A great CD to introduce your kids to opera!,
By Val (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carreras / Domingo / Pavarotti: Christmas Favorites from the World's Favorite Tenors (Audio CD)
I'm not a big fan of opera and-needless to say-none of my kids are. But since I found this CD easy to understand and like, I figured I could stick it under my daughters' noses and maybe have them like it too.
One evening I casually mixed it with other Christmas carol CDs and it worked! They liked it! Now, this is just the start for me and for them!
