Andrea Bocelli: The son rises in Hyde Park

Andrea Bocelli: The son rises in Hyde Park

The Italian singer has added his son Matteo and the Welsh songbird Katherine Jenkins to a mass concert he is giving in London next month.

Papa Bocelli said: ‘Hyde Park is the perfect place for coming together to celebrate my 30th anniversary and reimagine it as a springboard propelling us into the future, imbued with positivity and the power of good.

‘Celebrating it here is sure to be unforgettable, in the vast green lung from which London has been drawing breath for hundreds of years, in this park that is the embodiment of a glorious chapter in the history of a nation, of a continent, of a civilization…and also of so much wonderful music that has rung out here, nourishing it in its wake’.
