Andrea Bocelli Performs Sweetest Duet With His Daughter Virginia

Jun 27, 2020

Andrea Bocelli has delighted music fans for many years with his powerful and beautiful tenor voice, but it is his duet with his young daughter, Virginia, that has most recently warmed the hearts of people all over the world. Bocelli exudes love and tenderness as he joyfully sings with his little girl next to him. Bocelli seems to get great enjoyment of sharing his passion with his child, as any parent would. It is this great love and pride that has prompted many people from all over the globe to watch this video, which was posted back in 2019.

Bocelli started as an opera singer, delighting many fans with his incredible vocal talents. This Italian tenor eventually achieved mainstream success by becoming part of the pop music scene. His success with a 1998 duet with Celine Dion drew new fans to his operatic recordings. The Prayer, a song from the soundtrack of Quest for Camelot, blended the impressive voices of Bocelli and Dion and led to a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song, as well as an Academy Award nomination. Over the years, Bocelli has been a rather prolific star, recording more than a dozen albums since his start in 1982. While he has credits to many chart-topping hits, his duet with Dion put him into a new stratosphere that brought him legions of new fans.

The duet with Virginia was hardly the first time that Bocelli has performed with one of his children. This Italian singer has performed with his two older kids. Matteo Bocelli is also a singer and performed a duet with his father. The song Fall On Me appeared on his album Si and was written about their relationship. The Bocelli father and son duo sang the song in both Italian and English. Not to be outdone, Bocelli's oldest son, Amos, is also a musician. Amos played piano on the acoustic versions of the songs, Sono Qui, and Ali di libertà. Bocelli's duet with Matteo, and the two songs Amos played on, were all featured on Matteo's album Si.

In 2012, Bocelli, and his second wife, Veronica Berti, welcomed Virginia into the world. At the age of seven, her duet with her father has been seen over one million times. In the video, posted in December of 2019, the little girl and her father sing, Fall on Me, the same song recorded by Bocelli and Matteo. While the younger Bocelli can't yet match her father's vocal technique or power, she sings her heart out with the help of her golden-topped karaoke microphone.

Many commenters on the video loved the interaction between the father and daughter. Indeed, she does lean into her father lovingly as they sing together, and the interaction between the two certainly melted the hearts of many folks around the world. The video also features the young girl singing with her mother, too. Viewers also get to see the young star in the making dance and twirl around as she belts out some music solo. It is clear in this video that the bond between Bocelli and Virginia is very deep and that they can strengthen that connection through music. Any parent can relate to the love that is on display in this video.
