One starlit night before the 1990 World Cup Final, three of the greatest tenors of their era came together against the breathtaking backdrop of Rome's ancient Baths of Caracalla.
A global TV audience of one billion watched as Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo, and José Carreras delivered what would become the most iconic classical concert of all time. Under Zubin Mehta's masterful baton, Domingo unleashed the fiery power of Puccini's "E lucevan le stelle," Pavarotti soared to radiant heights with "Nessun dorma," and Carreras brought heartfelt depth to Giordano's "Improvviso." It was a fleeting moment where music and history became one.
Through unseen rehearsal footage and digitally remastered performances, relive the night that launched The Three Tenors phenomenon and changed the world of classical music forever.
