ANDREA - VIVERE:
this is a singer that doesn't matter what he sings he just makes a masterpiece of anything
Great CD.:
If you like Groban you will like Boccelli. Beautiful interpretations and style. 5 Stars.
Great Music!:
I'm not a music expert...I just know what I like and I LOVE this cd! The duet pieces are wonderful. I may not understand the words to many of the songs but I can feel the emotion that Andrea Bocelli puts in them. This is certainly a cd worth having.
Andrea for everyone:
As a fan of Andrea Bocelli I was a bit disappointed with this mix of melodies. Oh, the renditions are excellent and his voice is in top form. My only complaint is that one is jolted from one mood to another. A bit of pop, some opera, Spanish traditional... Something for everyone I guess. Not my favorite form. I guess that one really should read labels.
