Placido Domingo - My Greatest Roles/Documentary - Warner Music Group Germany

Placido Domingo is the most important person alive in opera. Greatest of the stage tenors still performing, experience conductor, intendant of not one but two US opera houses - these bald facts hardly begin to delineate the man. His influence is felt in opera houses worldwide, and his support can be the making of a singer's career. And on very rare occasions he allows television cameras in.
This film takes the form of a retrospective of his greatest work. In specially-filmed, extensice interviews, illustrated by performance footage, he speaks movingly of his most important roles, building a picture of this unique artist throughout his extraordinary career.
