5.0 out of 5 stars This makes you love tenors!, January 15, 2000
By A Customer
I always enjoy this CD every time I drag it off my rack and stick it in the CD player. It contains some of the best tenor aria's ever written, and is an extreme joy to listen too. It has made me love opera. I almost cry during some of the tracks, they are so beautiful. I have never seen a opera compilation that is as good as this.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mad About Three Tenors, August 22, 2007
Don't we already have enough "Three Tenor" recordings, without adding one with a title that suggests greater variety? Eighteen of the twenty tracks are by one or another of "the big three"--no offense intended, Luciano. On the positive side, the selections on this disc will be recognized, not only by enthusiasts, but by the casual opera enjoyer as well. However, the disc is engineered so softly that I had to pump up the volume in order to hear it well.
