ANDREA BOCELLI performed in a festive Christmas concert with his 8-year-old daughter Virginia Bocelli last year, and the tenor has now revealed how a performance that began as almost a joke turned into “a moment that I carry in my heart.” Andrea Bocelli found innovative ways to give live-streamed performances around the world last December, when much of Europe was in lockdown.

The Believe in Christmas concert at the Teatro Regio di Parma, which drew virtual spectators from over 100 countries, was his festive highlight. Now, as fans get another chance to see the show tonight and this weekend, the Italian tenor speaks exclusively to this website about the joy of duetting with his then-eight-year-old daughter Virginia Bocelli in her professional debut.
