Recorded at 4 August 2004 at Arena di Verona Italy. The magic of our Arena has become even more enchanting. A sublime embrace symbolising art and great music has tied it to seven millenary amphitheatres around the Mediterranean: Pula in Croatia, Ephesus in Turkey, Palmyra in Syria, Leptis Magna in Libya, El Djem in Tunisia, Terragona in Spain and Arles in France. This is an unprecedented event that also has the merit of bringing Placido Domingo back to the splendid setting of the Arena di Verona after a ten year hiatus. This great tenor acts as the spokeman - using his matchless voice as an instrument - to bring a message of brotherhood among nations and dialogue among different cultures.
