Beloved tenor Andrea Bocelli, one of the most celebrated classical singers in modern history, celebrates his 30th anniversary as a global icon with a brand new album Duets. This definitive collection features classic duets with Ed Sheeran, Céline Dion, Sarah Brightman, Dua Lipa, Jennifer Lopez, Giorgia and Edith Piaf alongside new collaborations with Shania Twain, Chris Stapleton, Gwen Stefani, Luciano Pavarotti, Marc Anthony, Matteo Bocelli & Hans Zimmer, Karol G, Sofia Carson and Elisa...
Duets is the perfect feel good Christmas album that isn't marketted as a Christmas release. Over the course of these 35 songs (2 hr, 29 min, 04 sec) Bocelli teams up with some of the music industries greatest stars to deliver some incredibly familiar songs but delivered in a different style than we're used to.
Some we're already familiar with, whilst others are not quite as well known. It's the perfect album to dip in and out of and put on random tracks or play from start to finish.
Bocelli's voice is incredible as always and it's interesting to see that each and every artist brings their A game - there's no phoning it in here.
This is a wonderfully uplifting feel good album that you'll get years of pleasure from.
