Andrea Bocelli duets 30.9.24
Andrea Bocelli
Andrea is an Italian tenor. He sings classical music but is well known for doing ‘crossover’ music where he fuses opera with pop music. Here he is singing with two well known pop musicians: a duet with Ariana Grande ‘E Più Ti Penso’ and one with Celine Dion ‘the Prayer’.
Andrea was born with a sight impairment. He lost his vision completely at 12 when he was hit in the ee by a football.
He always showed a great talent for music and at 6 he started to play the piano and later learned to play the flute, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, guitar, and drums. By age 7, he was able to recognize the famous voices of the time and tried to sing like the great singers.
