FROM THE NEW LANDMARK 30TH ANNIVERSARY ALBUM, DUETS
OUT 25TH OCTOBER 2024 – LINK HERE
World-renowned Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli has united with five-time Latin GRAMMY® and GRAMMY® Award-winner KAROL G for a new duet, ‘Vivo por Ella’, which is out today. The new single is a re-imagined version of one of Bocelli’s most iconic tracks, ‘Vivo per lei’ (‘I Live for Her’) in its Spanish version, ‘Vivo por Ella’. The track is taken from Bocelli’s forthcoming album, Duets, which is set for release on 25th October on Decca Records / Sugar Music and celebrates his 30th anniversary in music.
‘Vivo Per Lei’ catapulted Andrea Bocelli to success in numerous countries when it was released in 1995 on his album Bocelli. It topped the charts in France, Switzerland, Belgium, and Panama, and has gone on to become one of the tenor’s highest-streaming tracks. The Spanish version, ‘Vivo Por Ella’ was originally sung with Marta Sánchez, and it too has enjoyed major success.
Now the beloved song is being given new life as ‘Vivo por Ella’ with KAROL G – the most streamed female Latin music artist globally four years in a row on Spotify. The Colombian superstar singer recently wrapped her "Mañana Será Bonito" World Tour making history with the highest-grossing Latin tour by a woman in boxscore history.
Speaking about his collaboration with KAROL G, Andrea Bocelli says: “This song holds a very special place in my heart, and it’s a great honour to reimagine it with one of the most talented and exciting new artists in the world, KAROL G. Her beautiful voice helps create a timeless celebration of love and music that will find new fans and resonate across generations.”
KAROL G comments: “I discovered Andrea when I was a teenager. I was super connected to his music, the power of his voice and his unique way of creating music. This song is a huge honor for me – it’s a song I’ve always loved, and when I was invited to sing ‘Vivo por Ella’ it felt like coming home. It’s a song I really feel inside myself, it feels like it’s going to be a special point in my career.”
Andrea Bocelli’s forthcoming album, Duets, brings together many of his most beloved collaborations alongside brand new songs to mark his 30th anniversary year. This career-spanning 32-track collection includes duets with Ed Sheeran, Céline Dion, Sarah Brightman, Dua Lipa, Jennifer Lopez, Giorgia, and Luciano Pavarotti, alongside new superstar duets recorded especially for the album with Shania Twain, Chris Stapleton, Gwen Stefani, Marc Anthony, Sofia Carson, Lauren Daigle, Elisa, Matteo Bocelli and Hans Zimmer.
The new single follows Andrea Bocelli and Shania Twain’s duet ‘Da Stanotte in Poi (From This Moment On)’, a stunning rework of her hit of the same name, which was performed for the first time by the duo as part of a dazzling three-day concert event, ANDREA BOCELLI 30: THE CELEBRATION, which took place at the Teatro del Silenzio (Theater of Silence) in Bocelli’s hometown of Lajatico.
Among the other guests who took part in the star-studded Italian shows were Ed Sheeran, Russell Crowe, Will Smith, Sofia Vergara, Brian May, Johnny Depp, Placido Domingo, José Carreras, Lang Lang, Christian Nodal, Matteo Bocelli, Lauren Daigle, Nadine Sierra, Jon Batiste, Giorgia, Kim and Khloé Kardashian, plus many more. This once-in-a-lifetime outdoor performance event has been filmed for global release in cinemas this fall. ANDREA BOCELLI 30: THE CELEBRATION is directed by Grammy-nominee and Emmy Award-winner Sam Wrench, who recently directed Taylor Swift – The Eras Tour, the highest grossing concert film of all time. It is produced by Mercury Studios, Maverick, Almud, Impact Productions, and CitySound & Events, and released theatrically by Fathom.
A separate new documentary about the tenor is also set to hit cinemas this year called Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe, following his journey from a humble performer in a piano bar to an internationally-acclaimed singer with sell-out shows around the world.
With nearly 90 million records sold worldwide and over 14 billion streams, Andrea Bocelli is one of the most successful classical artists of all time. He has one of the most recognizable voices in the entertainment industry and with his new album Duets, he continues to surprise and enchant his fans 30 years on. The breadth of collaborations throughout his career so far is testament not only to his remarkable voice, but also highlights his lasting influence and artistry.
