The acclaimed opera singer will offer a special Easter concert to stream on YouTube for fans across the world.
With Easter masses moving online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bocelli wrote about the Christian holiday as a symbol of rebirth that's more important this year more than ever."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," Bocelli said in a statement.
Bocelli said that besides uniting the world through prayer and song, he believes that concert will also be a symbol of Italy's resilience amidst the coronavirus pandemic."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," he said.
Milan Mayor Giuseppe Sala said that he hoped that Bocelli's performance would provide a salve to the issues that the world has faced in the past few weeks, and even though Easter will be very different for Christians, the performance could provide some warmth."This year, Easter will be very different for all of us. The joyous serenity that usually comes with this day has been greatly troubled by the pandemic we are experiencing.
