Stars from all over the world gathered Sunday night at the mysterious Rose City of Petra, in Jordan to pay tribute to the late tenor Luciano Pavaroti. It was a private affair with proceeds going to charity. The tribute came on October 12th, Pavaroti's birthday.

The concert was sponsored by the Italian tenor's widow Nicoletta Mantovani and Princess Haya of Jordan on that day that would have been Pavarotti's 73rd birthday.

Placido Domingo, Andrea Bocelli and Sting were among the headliners who paid tribute to the opera legend. The performances were part of a series of concerts and exhibits marking the first anniversary of Pavaroti's death.
