At the cinema with Andrea Bocelli – ‘Love in Portofino’

Tenor Andrea Bocelli is making his cinema debut as the cinema version of his Love in Portofino concert is released for a limited time at selected Hoyts cinemas.

Love in Portofino was recorded in August 2012 as Bocelli hosted an intimate and romantic outdoor concert in one of Italy’s most beautiful settings. The cinema event also features a world exclusive interview with Bocelli in his Italian home.

Filmed on the shores of the Mediterranean in Portofino’s open-air piazzetta,  Love in Portofino features Bocelli singing some of the world’s most favourite love songs. Sharing the stage with him is an ensemble which includes violinist Caroline Campbell, singers Helene Fischer and Brazilian singer-songwriter Sandy, trumpeter Chris Botti and Bocelli’s fiancée Veronica Berti joining him for a duet of Something Stupid, all backed by a 40 piece orchestra and rhythm section.

Produced by 16-time Grammy Award winner David Foster, Love in Portofino screens at selected Hoyts cinemas from 28 February for a limited time.
