Another HOT Release from RNS!

When he was growing up, Andrea Bocelli recalls finding
inspiration in a favorite recording of sacred music
performed by tenor legend Franco Corelli. Bocelli--who in
the meantime has come to inspire millions of fiercely loyal
fans himself--returns to the genre as the guiding theme of
Sacred Arias, the release of which coincides with the first
major English-language biography of the singer. These
performances are filled with the singer's phenomenally
well-known vocal signature: his flair for long, sweetly
floating high notes and the gentle sense of cadence he
brings to a melody. It's a mistake to compartmentalize
Bocelli into a singer of "operatic" versus "popular" styles:
in truth his approach is at heart the same. Lack of color
and control in his phrasing remains a drawback, but the
emotional empathy Bocelli evokes is never in doubt. The
arias collected here sample some of the most famous
devotional pieces: Schubert's "Ave Maria" and Mozart's
transporting "Ave Verum," as well as an arrangement of
"Silent Night" in which Bocelli tries out his English.
There's also a decidedly odd choice of bedfellows for a
program of "sacred" music, such as a song from Wagner's
Wesendonck Lieder (whose "angel" is the object of an
overpoweringly erotic attraction) and Handel's figurative
ode to a tree, "Ombra mai fu." Still, Bocelli sings with an
unfeigned directness that is sure to expand his already
enormous following even further.
