Star tenor Andrea Bocelli is going on tour in 2027 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his breakthrough album Romanza, first released in September 1997.
The album marks a particular moment in Bocelli’s life both personally and professionally as ‘Con te partirò’, later released as ‘Time to Say Goodbye’ in a duet with Sarah Brightman, became a global cultural phenomenon.
Blending operatic singing with modern songwriting, Bocelli’s signature style became a major success, with the album becoming the best-selling Italian language, and predominantly non-English language album of all time.
