Editorial Reviews :
Inspired by the astoundingly popular The Three Tenors series, Broadway director Marion J. Caffey conceived and directed Three Mo' Tenors, bringing greater visibility to the classically trained African American voice. Starring seasoned tenors Roderick Dixon, Thomas Young, and Victor Trent Cook, Three Mo' Tenors is a theatrically staged concert set taped for public television's Great Performances. A companion to the taped show, the disc features just over an hour of live music from it. The phenomenal showmanship of Dixon, Young, and Trent Cook takes shape in the styles of opera, Broadway, blues, jazz, soul, spirituals, and gospel. The three virtuosos hit high C's with clarity and brilliance; scat with grace and grit; belt, bend and hold a note to beat the band. They move the audience to a state of near-ecstasy performing the traditional 'Were You There (When They Crucified My Lord)' and Puccini's glorious 'Nessum Dorma.' Other standouts include the jazz classic 'Twisted,' a rollicking version of 'Today I Sing the Blues,' and the salty 'Minnie the Moocher.' Boisterous, bold, and bountiful, Three Mo' Tenors is a modern classic.
Buyer Reviews :
I was totally blown away by the dynamic and astounding voices of Roderick Dixon, Thomas Young and Victor Trent Cook. I have never heard such melodic sounds from voices before I heard Three Mo' Tenors. If voices were music these would be the three voices you would hear. They compliment each other and achieve such splendid harmony. I was fortunate enough to see them in concert and fortunate enough to purchase this CD. Don't waste time thinking about making a purchase just do it now! You won't regret it. It will go down as a great decision once you hear these tenors. They leave you wanting more and more and more!
