Audiences everywhere revel in the sensuous beauty and the expressive allure of Andrea Bocelli's singing. But the experience of Bocelli's phenomenal gift always seems to offer something more, something indefinable, a potent chemistry of extraordinary gifts, passionate dedication and the most sublime inspiration. Call it a touch of the transcendent.

It makes Bocelli a pop singer whose magnificent voice seems nothing less than a miracle, and an operatic tenor so irresistible that he reminds us why opera was once pop music.

Bocelli returns to the world of pop with the release of Cieli di Toscana, a dazzling and evocative album of new songs he regards as his finest pop recording. "We were fortunate to find writers who have really sought to capture the characteristic sound of my voice, to understand me as an artist and as a singer," Bocelli says. "These songs are wonderfully inspired. In fact, I was struck by the fact that we were presented with so many great songs that one of our challenges was to decide which ones to leave out."
