"The extracts from these three operas were filmed by the BBC at the height of Tito Gobbi's operatic career ... Gobbi's portrayal of the three roles ... leaves the viewer in no doubt as to why he was so popular on screen ... An exceptional account of a remarkable singer and actor's portrayal".

"Though the BBC Television programmes from which these extracts are taken are in black and white, with sets and costumes that nowadays look stagey and old-fashioned, the truthfulness of Gobbi's exhaustively researched portrayals is still impressive".
