This album was clearly a "pickup group" put together for the commercial Christmas Season. Having said that, it is an enjoyable experience to hear these three gentlemen harmonizing so fluidly. Although Mr. Carreras's power can't equal the two giants singing with him, the engineering successfully levels the signal.

I love Christmas albums, and this is no exception. There is nothing controversial, experimental, or challenging. What you get is a lovely seasonal collection of masters who truly sing like angels.

Many, if not all, the songs appear to be recorded live, complete with applause. Thus, the quality may not as good as studio recorded music. But they are still good for casual listening.

To anyone who loves Christmas music, it is mandatory that you add this album to your collection. The Three tenors comprise a power-house of vocal collaboration and when you combine that with the beautiful melodies of carols, ugh...there are no words. Wonderful. Just wonderful.
I do have to say, though, that their rendition of "White Christmas" is hysterical. The Italian accents come out in full force (not to mention a a bit of a speech impediment): "I'ma dweaming of a white-a Chwistmas."
Priceless.
