Andrea Bocelli Reviews

Don Boyce from Raleigh, North Carolina

MORE ANDREA, FORGET THE DANCERS

Bocelli was terrific and he makes what he can do look effortless. First half of show with his solos or in duets with a soprano or with the baritone (Edward Parks) were tops. Great to see his duet with his young daughter in the second half doing Leonard Cohen’s “The Prayer.” Zucchero did a nice duet with Bocelli but his solo of “You Are So Beautiful) fell short of Joe Cocker’s version. ViolinistCaroline Campbell performed well as did the orchestra and the NC Chorus. The female plop Guest performer did okay but got screechy at times. The solo ballet dancer ad the pair dancers performing on stage during vocal performances was a distraction and te concert would be better without them.

GREAT SHOW

Excellant show. Andrea Bocelli is truly a master. The singers who performed with him, too, were excellent. His daughter Virginia is truly talented and certainly a talent to watch. The only thing I did not enjoy was the dancers. In my opinion, truly unnecessary and takes away from the singer and is a distraction. Overall, very glad that I had the opportunity to see this wonderful artist perform.

UNBELIEVABLE VOICE BUT NOT ENOUGH OF ANDREA

My husband and I drove back to Philly from New Jersey last night again! Andrea was amazing! Not happy with his choice of songs. Too much opera. When you spend as much money as my husband did on the tickets you want to see Andrea Bocelli sing and not others along with ballet dancers. But he was amazing!

PRODUCTION NIGHMARE

Excellent music and voice but one of the worst shows I’ve ever seen. I guess this is why you don’t see opera at Madison square garden where your average fan thinks it’s ok to talk the entire time, eat pizza boxes and get wasted on beer. Very low class event , poor acoustics because of an audience filled with fans that belonged more at a sporting event and an event staff (security and beverages that thought it was ok to talk, laugh, and roll giant carts during the entire performance) . Hard to concentrate on such an angelic sound with all the noise , cell phone dings and rings ( no you are not allowed cell phone usage) . Left towards the end , I prefer to listen in a different medium. This quite possibly was the worst produced show I have ever seen. Poor Andrea , such talent wasted under the direction of an agent and management company that clearly have decided to make music for the equivalent of Kmart shoppers on Black Friday.

DISAPPOINTING

He seemed tired. His performance for much of the evening was so muted I thought there was something wrong with the sound system. Song selection disappointed too. He could have included some of his more popular songs but didn’t. Finally came alive towards the end of the concert when had some competition from his amazing guest Heather Headley who brought the house down with her performance

DISAPPOINTED!

I was super excited about the Orlando concert honestly, we were hoping to hear his love songs with guitar and piano, (Beasemo Mucho, Kisas or Perfiedia). It was mostly opera songs which I found it boring. We didn't know about the contents of course. The seats we paid $400 each were very uncomfortable in the Amway arena. The cheaper seats were bigger and looked more comfortable. I was able to see only half of the stage. I will still enjoy his songs on YouTube but I was hoping to hear those songs in live performance. Unfortunately it didn't happen.

WHAT I LEARNED AT THE MET

I saw Andrea Bocelli at the Metropolitan Opera House on 2/10/19 and was disappointed. His entire show, including the encores, were arias that most of the audience didn't know. I admit that this is the way the concert was advertised but I assumed that he would do at least one of his popular songs. Most of the people I spoke to were also disappointed and it is telling that he didn't get a standing ovation from the whole audience at the end of the concert. If you are thinking of seeing him in the future take the following into account: At the Met there are no microphones and while he has a great voice, he really needs some amplification. The opera singers on the program came across much better for the guy in the $200 balcony seats. No large screen TVs at the Met so you couldn't see him too well. Lastly, no microphone means no speaking - he never said a word to the audience during the concert. Next time I'll go to a stadium when he's doing his greatest hits.
