Jose Carreras Feature
The Independent, 23 February 2004
Jose Carreras has hallmarked the business of spontaneous emotion. In Bath last summer, before the Three Tenors concert, it happened in one of the city's restaurants. A standing ovation when he walked in with his family for a quiet, simple supper and then, by way of thanks at the end of the evening, could he sing his appreciation for everyone's kindness? He did, and the place erupted in joyous delight.
Enjoy the concert
Star Online, 16 January 2004

The Marriage of Pavarotti
YTL Community, 18 December 2003
The guests included relatives and close friends, Jose Carreras, Bono and Francis Yeoh and his wife Rosaline. Pavarotti sang on three occasions for Yeoh, the latest of which was the unforgettable Three Tenors Concert in Bath this summer.
The best of British
Berita BMCC, 28 November 2003
Tan Sri Francis Yeoh's timing was apt – the Concert complemented the official Opening of the new Spa. Bath was founded on water, the magical hot springs that gushed from the volcanic innards of the earth, discovered by the Romans and which gave Bath its name. The Romans came in AD45. Pavarotti came in 2003. The waters have special life-giving properties not to be found elsewhere. YTL thus acquired one of UK's earliest known "brands".
Sacred and Profane
Datuk Dr Paddy Bowie Exclusive, 3 September 2003
And lastly was Tan Sri Francis’s own personal invocation. Declaring himself no po faced zealot, he nevertheless posed the dilemma facing us in this generation - the free choice of faith. The ugly world of violence and terror in which we live betrays our antecedents - their nobility of purpose, dedication to the beauty and joy of life, and their spiritual values. The choice is between love and hatred. We were left in no doubt where Tan Sri Francis stood. 30,000 people inspired by the Concert could be said to cast their vote with him.
