More quotes by Andrea Bocelli

Image
Classical music and pop are two different universes, each with its own difficulties, peculiarities, depth and artistic dignity. In Italy, I think there is a fairly clear line of demarcation, but the history of music is full of fusion. Popular and classical music have always found points of contact, of crossing, exchange, both drawing mutual profit.

I am a very lazy man, so, for me, the dream is to be at home on the chair with my family.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
Stage fright is my worst problem.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
I don't like crying. I'm a country boy, and we're the product of our upbringing. As a boy, I was told that men don't cry.

Image
What is beautiful enchants me. I mean not just physical beauty but a wider concept of beauty. There is beauty in poetry and in great musical or singing performances. There is beauty everywhere if you can just see it.

I speak to God every day.

Living is dangerous. The important thing is to know the limits.

Popularity gets up people's noses. But I understand the importance and the function of popular music. There is an artistic purpose. Popular music helps people to develop a curiosity and leads them towards classical music.

My life experience has taught me nothing happens by chance. Even the idea of the ball in a roulette game: it's not chance it ends up in a certain place. It's forces that are at play.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
The themes I sing about tend to be centered on love, but in the most total, general way 360 degrees of love.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
You have to have great passion, because to sing operatic music requires lots of work. I study for at least two hours every day. The voice is like an instrument and requires constant exercise.

I am a product of my native land, Tuscany, Italy.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
I've always known that I was born to sing, ever since I was a child.

Image
I did a pop album, 'Sogno,' in 1999. I think it's important to record another pop album because many people love pop music. By this kind of repertoire, some people can later discover classical music.

Opera singing is in every way of inestimable value a real heritage for all mankind that has been reached over centuries of studies, attempts, flights of the spirit.

I don't know if One Direction will stand the test of time. I have a niece who goes crazy for them. But the only way to judge art is to wait and see if it becomes evergreen. This takes a bit of time. Adele is a very good musician and I'd like to sing with her. But, again, time will tell if her music will become evergreen.

I change the language with which I use my voice. In opera, I know I have an orchestra behind me I have to communicate to people very far from me.

When the mood takes me, I like to be a man of action. I like to windsurf and ski, and most of all I love to ride horses. The wilder and faster the better!

I have always tried to perform the music I love, and I think I am lucky because my preferences are often the ones of the public.

I respect very much my public and also the music I perform.
