Andrea Bocelli is one of the most recognizable voices in the world. For three decades, his lush arias and stylistic range have made him the bestselling classical solo artist in history (selling 90 million albums worldwide), leading to Celine Dion famously saying said that “if God would have a singing voice, he must sound a lot like Andrea Bocelli.” The blind, Tuscany-born tenor’s concerts are a testament to his range and crossover appeal; Bocelli has become known for a blend of romantic operas by Puccini and Verdi, Schubert’s “Ave Maria,” and pop duets with stars like Dua Lipa. Over the course of his career, Bocelli has awed audiences from arenas and cathedrals to the Vatican and YouTube, where his 2020 “Music for Hope” Easter concert was viewed 28 million times worldwide within the first 24 hours.
