A positive frame of mind will definitely enhance your travelling experience. If I'm not in a positive frame of mind then the whole thing definitely becomes more of a challenge for me.

While they are kids, my children must do as I say.

Image
Every audience has its character I like America - they love me. I suffer from stage fright, but in America not so much.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
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.

Image
If you have a great love of singing, supported by others' fondness for your voice, then it is worth making every effort, of making every sacrifice, to achieve your goal. A great voice will easily find teachers who are willing to help a struggling young talent, and the ways of the Lord are infinite.

Criticism in good faith is good. When it's targeted solely to destruction, I'm not interested.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
I have to face life with a newly found passion. I must rediscover the irresistible will to learn, to live and to love.

When you sing opera you are very far from the people, you are onstage, and between you and the people there is the orchestra. So you have to launch your emotions very, very far. When you sing pop, you are singing very close - the microphone is very close to your mouth. You can whisper your emotions into the microphone.

'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
Image
Losing my sight had nothing to do with my focus on music. My passion for music was already there, so it would be a mistake to give too much significance to my blindness.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
The fact that I am blind is not what defines my life. It should be of no more interest than my blood type. People wonder if there is a relationship between my lack of sight and the way I sing. But there's no connection.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
I know that my passion is for opera, but sometimes I like also to sing songs, because there are many beautiful melodies.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
I think I don't want to use drugs or medicine, so nothing. The only way is to go on stage and to hope.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
When I sing for myself, I sing in a more free, athletic way. When I face an audience, there is always some fear that makes me put the brakes on a bit.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
The feeling of an evolution is a constant for every artist who is pursuing the search of refinement and enlargement of his/her own means of expression.

Success is related to faith. Faith comes first.

You can be great only if it is your destiny.

When a little more than a teenager, I was a piano-bar pianist in the land where I was born and raised, Tuscany.
