I’ve been asked to sing this song at a friend’s wedding at the beginning of the summer, and it’s an Andrea Bocelli piece. I’ve been getting acquainted with it this week during some downtime over Easter. I thought you might like to have a listen to the original version and see what I’m up against.
Now my friend’s favourite version is actually the version with Andrea Bocelli and Katherine Jenkins, but this one is in the key we’ll be doing the actual piece in (and a better quality recording)
This piece is pretty sedentary until the main duetted chorus, when it all kicks in (especially for the male singer!). It hits a top A in this piece, and holds it for some time. If you’re interested, here’s the link to the other version (down a semitone) so you can hear the slight difference in how Andrea takes the top note
