Performance documentary looks back over the career of Luciano Pavarotti, one of opera’s greatest tenors.
When Luciano Pavarotti died in September 2007, the world lost one
of the greatest voices in all of music. In celebration of
Pavarotti's peerless vocal talent and extraordinary international
impact, this performance documentary looks back over his legendary
career, utilizing the arias with which he was most closely
associated as a narrative framework. From his humble origins in
Modena, Italy, "A Life in Seven Arias" follows "The King of the
High C"'s meteoric rise, spanning his London debut in La
Bohème , his triumph in La Fille du
Régiment and his iconic rendition of "Nessun dorma." In
addition to a treasure trove of classic Pavarotti performances,
also featured are new and archival interviews with many of the
tenor's friends and colleagues, including Dame Joan Sutherland,
Plàcido Domingo, Jose Carreras and Juan Diego Floréz.
