Placido Domingo's life motto is 'A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss', for he has got one of the longest and most varied singing carriers ever. He has sung more than 120 different roles – more than any other singer in the world.

His repertoire stretches from Mozart to Verdi, from Berlioz to Puccini, and from Wagner to Ginastera. He performs in all the big opera houses of the world and has released far more than 100 different records and CD's, 98 of which are full operas, for which he has won numerous awards, including 11 Grammies. His life is determined by music, but Placido Domingo is also a great admirer of top sports performances. He is interested in numerous sports like Formula 1, Badminton and Basketball. But his biggest passion – apart from music – is undoubtedly football.

Placido Domingo is a professing fan of the football club Real Madrid, whose new hymn he recorded – and obviously the native Spaniard is also a big fanatic of the Spanish national team.

For this CD 'Moments Of Passion' Domingo chose moving arias, songs and hymns filled with great emotions. Many of these arias and songs have a close personal relationship with sporting events: 'Nessun Dorma' was sung by Domingo at the legendary first concert of the 3 tenors before the World Cup final in Rome, 'Granada' was sung at the concert of the 3 tenors in Los Angeles and 'E lucevan le stelle' in Paris.
