Bocelli Andrea: Believe – LP

The world-famous, acclaimed, and beloved Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli releases his breathtaking new album, Believe, on 13 November, celebrating the power of music to soothe the soul. The album features a previously unreleased track by the late Italian composer Ennio Morricone, as well as duets with the award-winning mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli. For the very first time, Andrea Bocelli records his own interpretation of Ave Maria and Padre Nostro. Look forward to popular favourites such as Hallelujah, You'll Never Walk Alone, and Amazing Grace. Believe is co-produced by Steven Mercurio and Haydn Bendall.

Believe is a deeply personal and uplifting collection of songs that have inspired Bocelli for years. Andrea Bocelli himself says: "Believe is based on three words: faith, hope, and charity.

These are the three theological virtues of Christianity, but – quite independently of any religious belief – they are also three extraordinary keys to giving meaning and completeness to the lives of every one of us."

Bocelli understands that all music is good for the soul in a way that connects with the finest nuances of humanity, regardless of individual belief: "Good music brings with it a powerful message of peace and friendship, teaches us about beauty, and helps us open our hearts and minds," says the artist.

Bocelli's solo rendition of Amazing Grace beautifully concluded his Music for Hope performance this year, which became one of the biggest musical livestream events of all time. The video achieved the largest audience for a classical livestream in YouTube history, gaining more than 28000000 views from around the world in its first 24 hours.

With a career spanning over a quarter of a century, during which his emotive and instantly recognisable voice has amassed millions of fans worldwide, Bocelli has collaborated with a host of stars, including Luciano Pavarotti, Ariana Grande, Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, Céline Dion, Tony Bennett, and many others.
