Andrea Bocelli Madison Square Garden

Andrea Bocelli, an Italian singer, songwriter, and tenor born on September 22, 1958, is known for his work in classical, opera, and pop genres. Despite being blind since the age of 12 due to a football accident and congenital glaucoma, he has achieved significant success, including an Academy Award Nomination, a Golden Globe, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Mentored by Luciano Pavarotti and Franco Corelli, he is recognized for albums like 'Romanza', 'Sì', and 'Sacred Arias', and songs like 'Con te partirò', 'Vivo per lei', and 'Time to Say Goodbye'. He is suave, bold, and picky; as an only child close to his parents, he enjoys hobbies such as golf and collecting vintage cars, and dislikes untidiness and incompetence. Involved in philanthropy through the Andrea Bocelli Foundation, which focuses on poverty and scientific research, he has traveled extensively across Europe and performed in numerous major stadiums and iconic venues.
