John McCormack, The People's Tenor succeeds in placing the tenor in his proper context as one of the greatest singers that Ireland has ever produced and the world has ever seen. For the first time ever on DVD, this documentary explores the tenor s life with rare films and photographs taken during The Golden Age of Opera.

| When I was growing up and the Beatles just coming to prominence, my late father repeatedly tried to get me interested in my cultural heritage and specifically, the Irish tenor, John McCormack. This hour-long tribute to McCormack's life and accomplishments provides information about his quick rise to fame and about the body of his work. I was also impressed to hear of his many charitable works. Very enjoyable. |

| Anything where I can hear the voice of the great Irish tenor John McCormack gets five stars from me. Even with that bias, this was a highly informative biography that I've watched a couple of times. So for the price of a CD, you get an entire video documentary with lots and lots of beautiful singing. |
