[Title] => Bocelli sings Verdi - SOUNDS FAMILIAR by Baby Gil
[Summary] => Andrea Bocelli is now fondly referred to as "the fourth tenor." This means that in the hierarchy of popular opera singers, he comes after the hugely successful trio of Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti, who in some instances are known as "the three tenors." That is quite a tall order for any tenor although Bocelli does seem to grow in artistry and technique with every new recording. And it is in this case that he seems to have managed to put one over his older peers because he has been recording one popular album after another and selling well.
