Opera – The Ultimate Collection showcases Andrea Bocelli’s vibrant personal journey through the world of opera. The collection features the most popular tenor arias from well-known operas such as La Boheme, Tosca, La Traviata, Madame Butterfly and Romeo & Juliet. It includes a brand new recording of the much celebrated Nessun Dorma! from Puccini’s Turandot is included; a signature piece for Bocelli as it was for his mentor Luciano Pavarotti.
The album draws on arias which inspired Bocelli throughout his career, from his first memory of opera, Verdi’s La donna e mobile to his newest recording of the great aria Donna non vidi mai from Puccini’s Manon Lescaut.
Bocelli explains: "The main objective of this type of album is to draw people closer to the opera, in particular, to the whole opera. So, I chose the tracks that are the most engaging the first time you listen to them. I hope I have made the right choice and it encourages people to discover more”.
