Free Music Review: Bellissimo!
Hit: 5 Stars

To me, unwrapping a Christmas present that includes a beautiful CD/DVD pack such as Andrea Bocelli's DeLuxe Edition of "Vivere" is one of the most wonderful things Christmas is made of. To Patrick and Deanna, a million thanks to both of you for your thoughtfulness! I have been enjoying this lovely CD and the amazing DVD showing Andrea Bocelli's "American Dream" concert at the Statue of Liberty.

The CD has an impressive collection of sixteen songs saturated with beautiful melodies and romantic lyrics flawlessly interpreted by Mr. Bocelli starting off with "La Voce Del Silenzio" to the final track, David Foster's "Because We Believe." His special guests are Laura Pausini in "Vivere," Celine Dion in "The Prayer," Kenny G in "A Te," showcasing his masterful sax playing, Sarah Brightman in "Con Te Partirò," Giorgia in "Vivo Per Lei" and pianist Lang Lang in "Io Ci Sarò."

Mr. Bocelli is not only an outstanding singer, but also a lyricist and composer in his own right. Some of the Italian lyrics from the repertoire were written by him and these are "Because We Believe" and "Io Ci Sarò." The title track "Vivere" is one remarkable song with meaningful lyric sang in an engaging duet with Laura Pausini. This song was co-written by a team of lyricists and composers namely Gerardina Travato (Italian lyrics), Eugenio Finardi (English lyrics), Celso Valli and Angelo Anastacio (music).

"Vivere non si può vivere senza passato
Vivere è bello anche se non I'ha chiesto mai
Una canzone ci sarà
Sempre qualcuno che la canterà"

It blew me away upon hearing his version of an enduring hit in the forties, "Besame Mucho," which I believe is the most beautiful male vocal version of this classic of a song written and composed by Consuelo Velazquez. My vote for the best female vocal rendition goes to Jackie Ryan in her elegant CD, You and the Night and the Music. Mr. Bocelli's mellow and soothing voice is just the perfect blend for its lovely Bossa Nova arrangement by David Foster giving it the retire-the-trophy-treatment and making it his very own . . . as if saying confidently and supremely: I can deliver the loveliest version of this song and it will be the most beautiful rendition of all, bar none! And he did just that! The enchanting guitar work makes it sound like a beguiling serenade. I listened to it with a few repeats and each time, I find my ears being captivated by it all the more.

"Bèsame, bèsame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La ultima vez
Bèsame, bèsame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte despuès"

My highlights on the DVD presentation are his notable performances of my all-time favorites "O Sole Mio," "Torna A Surriento," "La Donna E Mobile" from Verdi's "Rigoletto," and a couple of stunning duets with Ana Maria Martinez - "O Soave Fanciulla" from Puccini's "La Boheme" and Verdi's "Brindisi - La Traviata."

I had an enjoyable listening experience with this CD, and a delightful viewing of the DVD concert presentation. I'm sure you will, too.

With my heartfelt recommendation for your listening and viewing pleasure forever and a day.
