“The first thing that struck me from Brian May was his serene and classic aurawhich contrasts with the rock legend that his name represents all over the world, “said Bocelli:” This meeting aroused in me a sincere and profound respect For this man of rare intelligence and culture – a respect that I hope is mutual. One of the best guitarists of our time, a singer -songwriter of numerous timeless successes, an astrophysicist and an intellectual with a noble soul. Further confirmation of all this arrived a few days ago in Hyde Park, in London, when Brian made me the honor of coming to see me and attend my concert. When I asked him which guitars he possessed, he replied: ‘Just like you and your voice, Andrea, who is part of you, my guitar is my voice. I still use the one I built with my father when I had seventeen years’. “
This year Brian May has been a guest of Andrea Bocelli again On the sidelines of the three -day event that was held from 22 to 26 July at the Teatro del Silenzio in Lajatico.
