The trio began their collaboration with a debut concert at the ancient Baths of Caracalla in Rome held on the eve of the 1990 FIFA World Cup final in Italy, on July 7, 1990, with Zubin Mehta conducting the Orchestra del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and the Orchestra del Teatro dell'Opera di Roma. The idea of the concert was originally conceived by the Italian manager/producer Mario Dradi. The first concert was held to raise money for Carreras's foundation and also as a way for his contemporaries, Domingo and Pavarotti, to welcome their friend and colleague back to the world of opera after his successful treatment for leukemia.
The three subsequently sang together, in concerts produced by Hungarian Tibor Rudas and others, at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles for the 1994 World Cup finals, at the Champs de Mars, below the Eiffel Tower in Paris during France '98 and in Yokohama during the 2002 tournament. They have also played in other cities around the world, usually performing in stadiums or other large outdoor venues.

The Three Pretty Kitties
In a pretty little house made of celery
There lives a little kitty-cat family
One, two, three!
They can make make their tails look just like spaghetti
And they dine in bed on Apple Brown Betty
One, two, three!
But these pretty kitties, they're great circulators!
They know a pretty fish, and they're friends with alligators
One, two, three!
And when the sun decides to go out of sight
The pretty little kitties stand and wave good night!
(Sun, which has a face, sets, then rises and waves. Each kitty waves as Furl and Ghetty counts:)
One, two, three!
(Sun sets again.)
