Famed classical artist Andrea Bocelli performed a concert from the Duomo in Milan on Easter Sunday
pandemic has prompted shutdowns of large gatherings — including places of worship — leaving many to spend Easter in their own homes and turn to virtual means of celebrating the holiday.
“Music has the power to unite communities from around the world in the most unique and momentous ways. In such an unprecedented time, it’s critical we rally together and continue connecting through music,” Lyor Cohen, YouTube’s Global Head of Music, said.Michelle Obama Says She Feels ‘Newfound Sense of Gratitude’ amid Coronavirus Pandemic in Easter Message
Bocelli’s 30-minute concert was accompanied only by an organist, which he abandoned for his emotional final performance of “Amazing Grace.” After exiting the cathedral, he sang the first verse of the song unaccompanied in the abandoned Milan plaza, usually bustling with people. “It was an immeasurable honor and privilege to lend my voice to the prayers of millions of people, gathered in a single embrace – a small, great miracle of which the whole world was the protagonist and which confirms my optimism about the future of our planet,” Bocelli said. “Thanks to everyone who worked in the shadows for weeks, from management to the record label, and especially to all of those who have shared this moment with us, to stay truly united.
