Produced by David Foster - My Christmas offers a sequence of heart-warming, beautiful new arrangements and interpretations of classic tunes one never tires of, with Andrea's caressing, resplendent voice at its best. Favourites such as Adeste Fideles, White Christmas and Silent Night have never sounded more alluring.
The remarkable Canadian producer David “Hit Man” Foster has set the scene for Andrea Bocelli’s Christmas party by inviting an altogether extraordinary collection of special guests. The phenomenally successful Welsh mezzo Katherine Jenkins joins him on I Believe, while the very different mezzo of soul superstar Mary J. Blige duets on What Child Is This? Echoing one of the best-loved seasonal performances of all-time, Nat King Cole’s The Christmas Song, Andrea movingly sings with Nat’s daughter Natalie Cole.
But these are single artists. Andrea also flew to Salt Lake City especially to join forces with none other than the world-famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir for an uplifting interpretation of The Lord’s Prayer. And comprehensively completing the party are the most amazing guests of all . . . the Muppets! Yes, their outrageous version of Jingle Bells ensures that Andrea Bocelli’s Christmas is one to be remembered.
My Christmas is a winning album, expertly arranged, played and sung, becoming a point of reference for the entire genre. And from now on, no one, listeners and performers alike, will be able to forget this Christmas, as sung by Andrea Bocelli.
