Classical star Andrea Bocelli has announced two UK dates for the Autumn, confirming September shows in Leeds and Glasgow.
Regarded as one of the finest voices in the world, Andrea Bocelli emerged as vocal phenomenon in the 1990s and has become one of the most successful artists of all time selling over 65 million albums worldwide.
Andrea Bocelli entered the Guiness Book of World Records following the release of his 1999 classical album, 'Sacred Arias', as he simultaneously held the top three positions on the US classical albums charts.
Since then, six of his albums have reached entered the Billboard 200's Top Ten and a record-setting eight, have topped the classical albums charts in the United States.
Andrea will release 'Passione', his fourteenth studio album (twenty-third overall solo release) on 29th January in advance of Valentine's Day. The album is a collection of Mediterranean love songs featuring duets with Jennifer Lopez, Nelly Furtado and a virtual duet with Edith Piaf.
The album was produced by multiple Grammy-winning producer and Verve Music Group Chairman David Foster who produced Bocelli's 2006 Latin album 'Amore'.
Andrea will return to the UK in September for two UK arena shows, one at the all-new Leeds Arena and another at Glasgow's Hydro Arena.
