Apparent throughout is Pavarotti's big-hearted emotional generosity that infuses this superb collection with an immediacy and communicative power that's impossible to resist. Of course, 'Nessun dorma!' is here to lead off the ...

Appalachian Journey
from: Sony

This is reflective (and relaxing) music, lacking the intricate structure of classical music and the rough edges ...
