Among the most commanding vocal performers of his generation, Luciano Pavarotti was world-famous for the brilliance and beauty of his powerful tenor. Though his voice was particularly suited for the world of opera, towards the end of his career, Pavarotti made tremendous inroads into the mainstream of the pop universe through a concert series entitled "Pavarotti and Friends." Set up as charitable concerts to raise money for medical, vocational, and educational initiatives in poor nations, the series paired the famed tenor with some of the biggest names in rock and pop. THE DUETS culls highlights from studio recordings and live performances with a star-studded array of singing legends, including Celine Dion, Bono, and Elton John.

This is a lovely CD and Pavarotti is wonderful on it. The duet with Lionel Richie is worth the price of the CD alone, not to mention the ones with Celine, Mariah, Sting and Elton, etc. "Miserere" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and the rendition with the Maestro and Zucchero is spectacular. So powerful.
Don't listen to the negative reviews. They're probably some other tenor's fans trying to sabotage it. It was #1 on Billboard and is still #2 on the charts, so evidently, it's good. In fact, it's excellent.
