Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - it's good but perhaps not great
Anyone who is a fan of The Three Tenors will find this CD indispensable. I share other reviewers' concerns about the inaccuracy of Pavarotti's English, and I would add his German is not that much better. The recording is quite rich and well detailed, although as mentioned elsewhere the singing has too much forte and not enough mezzo voce. The orchestral playing of the Vienna Symphony is respectable as is the conducting of Steven Mercurio. The contributions of the Gumpoldskirchner Spatzen Children's Choir are very distinguished indeed and quite a pleasant surprise.

I was somewhat dissapointed with the very minimal documentation in this recording, which has little more than several photos of the Tenors in various parts of the Vienna Konzerthaus. Considering the price of this issue there should have been some translations of the songs which were not rendered in English. I also feel the performance of John Lennon's Happy Christmas, done in an arioso style with a rather questionable orchestral arrangement, did not add to the progamme but rather detracted from it. It was regrettable that track was not performed solely by the excellent choir.

Taken as a whole, it remains an enjoyable issue.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - THE THREE TENORS WITH THREE GOLDEN VOICES
Each time these guys get together for a recording session, all things turn to gold in their particular style of music. I have all the Three Tenors CDs and I am not surprise on how good this venture turned out. I am not a great lover of opera, but these guys I do like. For the opera lover, you may be able to pick apart the flaws and be crtical about their performance, but not I. I just love it. This CD will not be played only at Christmas, but it will be apart of my everyday listing pleasure along with other Three Tenors CDs. I am hoping that there will be another Three Tenors performance in 2002 after the World Soccer Championships.; we can only hope.

Happy listing, because you will enjoy it

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not a "Three Tenors" fan _but_
This is _not_ the usual type of Christmas music you will hear over the radio as the holiday approaches. Speaking strictly for me, if I never heard "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" again in my life, it would be too soon. So I thought I'd try out "The Three Tenors" and see what their Christmas album had to offer.

There are some problems with the music - Pavorotti seems to have some difficulty with English, but on the whole I did enjoy this album - and I'm not a fan of "The Three Tenors". I would have picked some other music for them to do - the John Lennon composition "Happy Christmas / War is Over" doesn't seem to work wel in this particular format, but it's entirely possible that I am too used to the Lennon/Ono performance.

So try something new for the Christmas season and listen to this cd. It has some very good cuts, especially "Felice Navidad".
