Andrea Bocelli

A Tuscan, like Puccini and Mascagni, Andrea Bocelli was born on 22nd September 1958 in the family farm of Lajatico, among the vineyards of the countryside of Pisa. His parents must be given credit for having encouraged young Andreas musical talent, allowing him to start studying the piano from the age of only six years old. Later his musical passion extended to the flute and the saxophone but it was in his voice that Andrea discovered the ideal instrument. This was the beginning of the formative process which would produce Bocelli, the star, a modern but old fashioned tenor (as he likes to describe himself).

At last, a legend for the new millennium. A legend in the Homeric sense of a myth, the word that speaks, flowered through singing, just like Caruso, Gigli, Del Monaco, Corelli A legend of Andrea Bocellis stature cannot be built through design: not even the most astute marketing would be able to come up with such a result. People simply recognize and vote for him. And this is what happened, in an apparently equal yet perfect context (a singing competition, the Sanremo festival in 2004), because the infancy of a legend follows a course which breaks traditions. From then on the tone of his voice has brought tenderness to the world and his fame has increased exponentially. Because if God could sing, He would sound a lot like Andrea Bocelli: even Celine Dions famous comment is a clear, unadorned testament to the artists mythical status as well as the perception of a giftThat voice, that simultaneously melancholic and radiant color, unrivalled in the expression of the song of a lover or a father, a matchless expression of earthly desire or heavenly love. Close to celebrate his first twenty years of career with 80 million record sales to testify to it.
