Biography

Equipped with a ringing voice in the high notes and rich in the middle, with clear phrasing and a clear timbre, he is counted among the greatest tenors of all time, as well as among the greatest exponents of opera music. With Carlo Bergonzi, Enrico Caruso, Franco Corelli, Mario Del Monaco, Giuseppe Di Stefano, Beniamino Gigli and Tito Schipa, he remains one of the world-renowned Italian tenors.
With Pavarotti & Friends and his numerous collaborations (among which it is worth mentioning in particular the creation of the Three Tenors group with his Spanish colleagues Plácido Domingo and José Carreras), he consolidated a popularity that gave him fame even outside of the musical field. With over 100 million copies sold worldwide, he is estimated to be, also in terms of sales, among the very first singers of every musical genre, as well as among the most successful Italian singers at an international level.
