Legendary Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli is joined by Ellie Goulding and Jennifer Garner for two brand new duets – watch a teaser clip below.
Andrea Bocelli and Ellie Goulding perform together on the new single ‘Return to Love’, which features on the extended special edition of the operatic tenor’s No.1 album Si.
“Ellie Goulding is the perfect singer for this track,” Bocelli said of their duet.
“She has a beautiful voice which I loved right away.”

The single, which is being released today, is a powerful duet between the operatic tenor and pop singer.
“To me, Andrea has one of the most beautiful, recognisable voices of our generation,” said Ellie Goulding, who presented Classic FM’s Revision Hour earlier this year.
“It was a huge honour that the legendary Andrea Bocelli wanted me to feature on this song with him. I have always had an affinity with classical music and I’m a sucker for a love song.
“It was fun and enlightening to sing in Italian – a real joy to record.”
