The Three Tenors - Domingo, Pavarotti, Carreras (Photo, Decca/Carlos Picasso) Good morning, friends! When we shared last weekâs post with countertenor John Holiday, we mentioned the term âcrossoverâ when discussing his performance on The Voice. Letâs dive in to what that means and why they do it.
Someone, somewhere is using his or her technological wizardry to mix and match some of the great opera stars of the past with those of the present, along the lines of Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole's tech-engineered duet "Unforgettable" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhpmxjRXneY). I wonder who subscribers would match up?
So enjoy watching and hearing the Three Tenors, magnificent presence - magical

Revisiting Juan Diego FlĂłrez singing âCucurrucucĂș Palomaâ was sweet. How surprising to discover Eileen Farrell's gifts as a jazz singer. I especially loved RenĂ©e Fleming's performance of "No One's Gonna Love You", originally by "Band of Horses". The rock album "Dark Hope" (2010) was certainly not on my bingo card for Fleming. Versatility is her middle name, but I wonder if she has done irreversible harm to her instrument. What do the critics say about the opera crossover phenomenon? Regardless of their opinions, this was a fun side trip!
