Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli's albums and underscores his unique crossover appeal. Critical response to Bocelli has been confined to fusillades of scorn from classical and opera writers, but the bullet-proof superstar is better understood in the context of a mainland European tradition of pop-classical fusion. Bocelli cheerfully ignores the supposed wall between high (classical) art and low (pop) kitsch with his mix of operatic chestnuts, soft pop and traditional Italian songs.Indeed, despite interview segments in which he proclaims his love of opera or proudly recalls an apprenticeship to operatic veteran Franco Corelli, Bocelli comes across as more fan than virtuoso. But if his voice can prompt technical cavils from hard-core opera buffs, the blind singer's emotional directness and relative lack of onstage preening explain much of his populist appeal. Featured songs include warhorse arias, leading off with the "Louie, Louie" of tenor showpieces,Turandot's "Nessun Dorma" and duets with gruff Italian pop-rocker Zucchero and sopranos Nuccia Focile and Sarah Brightman (who buddies up for the tear-jerking closer, "Time to Say Goodbye"). Even with the marquee bonus of those guests, however,A Night in Tuscanygets its biggest boost from the seductive Italian countryside, prominently featured in between-song segments, and in the romantic concert setting, Pisa's Piazza dei Cavalieri. --Sam Sutherland

and face every challenge with passion. I try to always be optimistic by interpreting the real meaning of a quotation from the French novelist Antoine de Saint in "The Little Prince" 'You see clearly only through your heart, the essential is invisable to your eye'"
Wow, well said - I thought I would just slip that one in!

AndreaBocelli's latest album has something for everyone. Although it is called a greatest hits album there are, in fact, 4 new recordings to delight the devoted fans such as myself. In addition, all his classic & most beautiful recordings are also here such as "Time to say goodbye" with Sarah Brightman & "The Prayer" with Celine Dion + my favourite of all time "Sogno". The title song is also a variation on the original but now with some inspirational english lyrics. I would most definitely recommend this album to anyone new to Andrea's magic but would also urge that establish fans do not reject it as simply a greatest hits re-hash, which it certainly is not. This is easy listening music, no opera, not for rock fans but for anyone who appreciates "conventional" music performed by a real professional in his field. There is also a version ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Vivere - Andrea Bocelli
merchandise slowly beginning to make its way its way into the shops. First off we had the book, 'Girls NightIn', and the DVD 'The Very Best Of...', both of which are truly wonderful. But I wanted more...
Then last month the new book, 'Here Come The Girls' was released, giving me yet another fix of Loose Women. And then...this morning, I received a DVD I preordered the month previous. Yes, it is 'Late Night with Loose Women'!
The DVD can be recognised by its wonderful cover. It has a main red colour, very bright and matches the book. On the front you can see a picture of four Loose Women: Andrea, Jane, Sherrie and Carol. I did wonder where the rest were, but luckily that was soon revealed. On the back there are some images from shows, making everything seem so much more exciting. I couldn't wait!
When the DVD starts up, the Loose Women theme tune ...
