One of the world's most renowned tenors, Placido Domingo is largely responsible for the increasing mainstream popularity of opera among contemporary listeners. To date, he has made over 100 recordings, has won eight Grammy Awards, and has sung more roles and been seen by more people than any other tenor in history. Domingo has flung open opera's highbrow doors to the world, his exciting vocals and charming looks garnering the attention of a veritable international pop star. The DVD box in hand unites three of his infectious live performances:
