One of opera's most beloved pop crossovers, Andrea Bocelli has traversed the musical terrain of 10 singers. Rising to prominence in Italy in the early ‘90s, he would go on to find that his warm lyric tenor is as well suited for a sentimental duet with Barbra Streisand as it is for performing Schubert, whose “Ave Maria” he conquers with dignified ornamentation and nuanced intonation. Of course, Bocelli's performance of “Con Te Partiro” will forever be one of his most brilliant summits, a sweeping lament of opportunity past that has appeared in countless records, television programmes and films.
