The legendary Enrico Caruso was a very passionate man, apparently about everything. So I wonder what he would think about this new BMG/RCA dvd and cd set. Great concept combined with a surprisingly lackluster execution. I am not sure of the market BMG had in mind because the set seems to work best as an introduction to the great tenor rather than as an addition for the Caruso afficionado. Yet even as an "Intro" it provides little information for the neophyte to want "more."
Getting down to specifics, the main attraction is a 46 min. A&E biography that is very nicely produced with fascinating newsreel footage of Caruso, interviews with key people including his son, and of course, Caruso singing on the soundtrack. How can you go wrong? The problem is the unanswered questions a viewer may...
