Amazon.co.uk Review
It's not opera; it's not a pop concert; it's not Broadway. It's all of these and none of them. Once you accept the fact that this sequel to the original blockbuster concert recording is less about music and more about entertainment and the power of musical personalities, you can appreciate what you're hearing as an event--phenomenal and bizarre, momentous and frivolous. This is an occasion to celebrate the voices and egos of three huge superstars and to have fun listening as Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo and José Carreras interact, bouncing lines off each other and playing to the overwhelmingly enthusiastic audience. Much of the fun and flavour of the concert is dependent on seeing the action, though, and without the visuals you notice flaws in the singing much more. Domingo comes off as the more solid performer and his voice is in far better shape than the other two. But if you crave big, high and loud--and you don't take your opera too seriously--you'll love this disc. --David Vernier

Better as it Progresses, 2002-11-30
Wonderful concert. The songs and singing arrangements just get better and better as the concert goes along.
The concert was attended by such well-known people as Ex Pres Bush, Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra, Arnold Schna....,Gene Kelly.
Concert was in LA and a lot of "american" favorites (such a musical from movies) were selected, some to honor the crowd such as "Singing in the Rain" and "My Way".
Received 3 curtain calls. Pavarotti's Ava Maria inspired the crowd to stand up cheer. Same for his Nessun Dorma!
Orchestra LA Philharmonic also was featured playing some pieces with just the orchestra.
Excellent, wonderful music.
