Issued in 2007, this Andrea Bocelli collection presents many of the Italian classical/pop-crossover artist's most memorable vocal performances. Highlights of the compilation include "Sogno" and "Because We Believe," tracks that fully reveal Bocelli's emotive and resonant voice, as well as duets with Celine Dion ("The Prayer," a delicate ballad) and Sarah Brightman (the wistful "Time to Say Goodbye"). While VIVERE may be a bit too concise for diehard Bocelli fans, it serves as a perfect introduction to the beloved singer.

Tracklist
Andrea Bocelli
Blind Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli is perhaps crossover classical's most successful performer. Since his 1992 duet with Italian pop-rock sensation Zucchero, Bocelli has had one foot firmly planted in the world of classical opera and the other in commercial pop. His soulful delivery has garnered praise from, among others, Luciano Pavarotti, and has graced numerous traditional opera recordings; however, he has also duetted with the likes of Celine Dion, Sarah Brightman, and AMERICAN IDOL runner-up Katherine McPhee. Bocelli has millions of fans, and is one of the most successful recording artists in the world.
