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. |
