More quotes by Andrea Bocelli
I have always loved music and singing, and I am open to listen to any type of music. Regardless of my mood, my heart is always set racing when I listen to opera. When I decide which music I want to hear, my choice is almost invariably an opera recording.
Andrea Bocelli
The nature of music is mysterious and so much so that it generates strong emotions within us. It moves along passages that reach the most intimate areas of our psyche without being tried by prejudices or influences of any kind.
Andrea Bocelli
It's always beautiful to sing with other great voices. I like voices in general. It's a big privilege to have great singers next to me.
Andrea Bocelli
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.
Andrea Bocelli
'Passione' is a selection of the music moments that have accompanied my youth a collection of cherished memories, of moments, of fleeting emotions, of sleepless nights.
Andrea Bocelli
I always knew I would sing. I just didn't know if I would be successful or not. But I sang at school, I sang at parties, I sang at church. Everyone always asked me to sing. I'd be playing football with my friends and my parents would ask me to sing for their guests. I was never very happy about that because I wanted to play football.
Andrea Bocelli
Some years ago I gave a concert in the mountains with snow all around, and that was much colder.
Andrea Bocelli
Probably the first time I left Italy was to travel by train to Lourdes. I went with my mother and my grandmother - who was a very religious person - so it was a pilgrimage of sorts. I remember it as a very intense, but beautiful experience.
Andrea Bocelli
All that counts in life is intention.
Andrea Bocelli
In essence, I set myself the objective of doing what I feel is right without having any ambition.
Andrea Bocelli
I like to windsurf and ski, and most of all I love to ride horses. The wilder and faster the better! If I'm presented with a fast horse or a fast boat, I still get that shiver of excitement and I cannot resist. Luckily I never seem to have any accidents, and thank God for that.
Andrea Bocelli
Now I'm more sure and I feel myself more comfortable singing.
Andrea Bocelli
I've been to almost every country in the world, and the most frustrating thing for me has been that my schedule has always been so busy that there's so little time before and after performances to explore where I'm visiting.
Andrea Bocelli
Even in the most beautiful music, there are some silences, which are there so we can witness the importance of silence. Silence is more important than ever, as life today is full of noise. We speak a lot about environmental pollution but not enough about noise pollution.
Andrea Bocelli
I've always known that I was born to sing, ever since I was a child.
Andrea Bocelli
I have to face life with a newly found passion. I must rediscover the irresistible will to learn, to live and to love.
Andrea Bocelli
When I hear that young people have come to the theater for the first time to listen to opera, I'm very happy. Because it's the same thing that happened to me as a child. When I first heard the tenor voice, I immediately fell in love with this kind of music.
Andrea Bocelli
In singing, you cannot 'cheat' if you want to give emotions to those who are listening. You must have something to tell.
Andrea Bocelli
My idol has been Franco Corelli. But every singer can teach you something.
Andrea Bocelli
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.
