Another "seductive" Placido Domingo

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This DVD " Bravo Domingo" is offering seven latin songs, sung by a very handsome Placido Domingo, playing wonderfully the "seductive" high class man we love through all his albums of latin songs...
It is not to be in competition with Placido Domingo, the King of Opera : it is another Placido Domingo who is a winner for any kind of approach in the world of music , and here, in his own Spanish language, the songs are so beautiful, and the clips are so personally performed, with some special "story" like the thema of "Cyrano de Bergerac" used on the mariachi song "Paloma Querida"...
Let your heart to be widely open to really enjoy this DVD, full of beautiful popular melodies sung by a great singer who is also a very attractive man...
I love this DVD : "BRAVO DOMINGO"...which are just the perfect words to be said to him, with our gratitude !"

Bad Idea

"Placido Domingo has one of the greatest voices of all time. I love to hear him sing. For that reason I gave this 3 stars. His singing is good even if the songs are ordinary and I think several are reworks of previous material. I admit I'm not familiar with spanish music so for me much of this sounds alike but worth listening to. As for the DVD-please do Mr. Domingo a favor and don't watch it. It is embarrassing to see such a great artist sink to such a low level. The lip-synching is obvious and the performances terrible. Leave the low-brow stuff to Julio Iglesias and Luciano Pavarotti. They are better at it. This CD/DVD is worth listening to but not watching."

"Worth purchasing. Seven entertaining Latin movie clips with Domingo singing on DVD and also the previously released, Bravo Domingo CD with a good selection/variety of some of Domingo's best Opera and Latin tracks."
