Negative Positive
Title: A lap of honor before the race.
Review: Watson has a voice which may, with training and dedication amount to something but it is not in his interest to attempt opera by singing,badly, some well known arias. When he can sustain a whole operatic preformance without any electronic assistancce he may be entitled to make operatic recordings. Rene Kollo made the transition from pop to opera but he did not do it overnight. I had to return to a 1944 recording of Bjorling to remind myself how Nessun Dorma should be sung. Watson delivers a little with too much hype.
