Interview on the show “Our breakfast” and Fai Skordas, on SKAI, given by the world-renowned tenor, Andrea Bocelli. A few days before his grand concert on July 18 at the Olympic Stadium in Athens, the man who breathed new life into opera spoke to Fai Skordas about the artist and the man behind the legend of the most popular tenor in the world.

I am happy to come to Athens soon, it has been a while since I sang in your country. I met a very friendly crowd and I can’t wait to come backAndrea Bocelli said in his interview.

To the presenter’s question about how he feels about meeting the Greek public again and what are his thoughts about our country, Andrea Bocelli said:I know about your country since my school days. I learned to love Greek culture since I was taught about Aristotle, Socrates, Plato and more… And all the rest of course, Anaxagoras, Anaximenes kok.

The Greek public is very committed, warm-hearted, loving and for that I feel a great responsibility. To sing in front of so many people a repertoire, like the one I will bring to Greece, is a great responsibility and I am sure that many people will hear it, perhaps, for the first time. And for that I will have to give my best and I will try to come to Greece in a good physical condition and I hope it happens like that».

A man like you, the greatest tenor in the world, Faye Scorda told him and Andrea Bocelli, without a second thought, answered her that “that’s not true…”. As for whether he is nervous about his concerts, Andrea Bocelli was also honest: “Anxiety is always there, because to do this job well, you need interest, you always have to give your best. It’s not always easy to get there and give your best, but you have to try to do that and I do».

In fact, he revealed that he will come one day earlier to Greece with his family, as after the concert he will be in his country for the annual concert at the Teatro del Silenzio. Every July, the famous tenor performs a concert in this particular theater, which opens only for this concert. “It is something important, because I can present to my country a small part of the reality, not so known to many people, all over the world, and they can learn about Tuscany, specifically the part of Tuscany where I was born and raised».
