ITALIA MEJOR JUNTOS.

Video ANDREA BOCELLI CHRIS BOTTI.

No conocia a Chris Botti, pero comprare el C.D para disfrutar de ANDREA, y del arte de otro grande ENNIO MORRICONE., que he visto hay aqui al menos dos temas: Once upon a time in America, y mi preferido Gabriel's Oboes.

Perfect !!. Thank you very much, Carolina 1954.

I can't recommend enough this wonderful CD!!! Andrea sounds soooooooo beautifuuuullll !!! Unfortunately, there are no lyrics. I still have to play the DVD, but I will save it for when my heart stops pounding so hard... I think I am going to listen to the CD again... :cheers: =D>

Here are some words from Lorenzo "Jovanotti" Cherubini who wrote the lyrics for the song "Italia":

..."l'altro gionro mi è arrivato via mail un mp3 con Andrea che cantava le mie parole e mi sono emozionato tantissimo. Bocelli è uno dei più grandi cantanti del mondo e la sua voce è bella come un'alba di inizio vacanza,per me è un onore grandissimo aver scritto le poche parole che compongono il testo di "Italia" (io sono abituato ai testi dei miei dischi che hanno sempre un sacco di parole e stavolta ho dovuto essere strettissimo perchè le note erano lunghe come è giusto per un prodigio timbrico-espressivo come quello del maestro). Mi hanno mandato la musica un opaio di mesi fa dicendoimi solo che ad Andrea sarebbe piaciuto che la canzone si intitolasse "ITALIA".

If you have purchased the Digipak (CD + DVD) and found the Bonus tracks missing in the DVD, don't worry. Just go to the Chris Botti's web site:

http://www.chrisbotti.com/site.html

and you will see a little box saying: Download Bonus Tracks Here - click on it and another window will appear. You can Download the tracks or fill out the form for the CD to be sent to your home.

Happy listening!

Hi.. I just bought Italia at Borders for 17.99 plus tax.... it is a must buy and see for all Bocelli and of course Botti fans... I hope Andrea does more songs like this ... don't get me wrong I still think his classical cds are the best... but this is more relaxed and smooth.

To fans in the USA:

Browsing Chris Botti's web site, there was a link to 'Buy' this CD. I clicked on it and took me to the following page:

http://www.sonymusicstore.com/store/cat ... word=chris

and if you click on 'more information...' under the "Italia" [Deluxe Edition CD+DVD], it will take you to this other page:

http://www.sonymusicstore.com/store/c/C ... ku=128831/

where there is the explanation about what happened with the 4 Bonus tracks and what to do about it.

Notice the prices... they are cheaper. :o

Since the link to the video with Andrea and Chris rehearsing "Italia" has disappeared from Amazon.com, here is another one:
