The legendary tenor will be streaming a free concert live on YouTube
Here’s something that’ll lift your spirits this Easter: Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli will perform a solo concert – titled Andrea Bocelli: Music For Hope – at Milan’s historic cathedral, Duomo di Milano, on Easter Sunday.
Although the public won’t be allowed to attend – due to coronavirus restrictions enforced by the Italian government – the concert will be live-streamed across the world.
“On the day in which we celebrate the trust in a life that triumphs, I’m honoured and happy to answer ‘Sì’ to the invitation of the City and the Duomo of Milan,” Bocelli said ahead of his performance.
“I believe in the strength of praying together; I believe in the Christian Easter, a universal symbol of rebirth that everyone – whether they are believers or not – truly needs right now.”

The concert will be filmed in Milan’s historic cathedral, Duomo di Milano.
“Thanks to music, streamed live, bringing together millions of clasped hands everywhere in the world, we will hug this wounded Earth’s pulsing heart, this wonderful international forge that is reason for Italian pride,” Bocelli said.
“The generous, courageous, proactive Milan and the whole of Italy will be again, and very soon, a winning model, engine of a renaissance that we all hope for. It will be a joy to witness it, in the Duomo, during the Easter celebration which evokes the mystery of birth and rebirth.”
Who else is playing with Andrea Bocelli?
