An Unforgettable Collaboration: Andrea Bocelli and Brian May Shine in 'Who Wants To Live Forever' Performance at Teatro del Silenzio
Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli recently shared a performance of Queen's Who Wants To Live Forever featuring guitarist Brian May. The performance took place in July 2024 at Teatro del Silenzio, an open-air amphitheatre in Tuscany, Italy, partially funded by Bocelli. This event was part of Andrea Bocelli 30: The Celebration, a three-day concert series that included various artists like Placido Domingo, José Carreras, and Shania Twain, among others.
Bocelli expressed his admiration for Brian May, highlighting May's classic aura and intelligence. May, known as one of the best guitarists of our time, also shared a personal connection with his guitar, which he built with his father at the age of seventeen. This mutual respect and admiration led to May attending one of Bocelli's concerts in Hyde Park, London, further solidifying their bond.
The concert film of Andrea Bocelli 30: The Celebration, directed by Sam Wrench, premiered in US cinemas and is now available for streaming on Apple+. The film captures the essence of the event, showcasing the performances and collaborations that made the celebration memorable.
