His incredible voice is known around the world and now it seems that talent runs in the family.

The trio delighted fans at the O2 arena with a section of classic tunes as they sang from their festive album entitled A Family Christmas.

Andrea, 64, cut a dapper figure in a purple printed jacket which he wore over a black waistcoat and trousers.
He completed the look with a crisp white shirt and black dickie bow as his silver locks were neatly parted.
Meanwhile Matteo opted for a more traditional black dinner suit and Virgina looked lovely in a gold baroque party dress.

All dressed in white they cuddled up for a festive themed shoot surrounded by a gorgeously decorated tree, gifts and a roaring fireplace.
The family said: ‘We are offering our small, intimate, and heartfelt gift to anyone who wishes to enjoy the soundtrack of Christmas in the Bocelli home’.
Speaking of working with his children Andrea said: ‘I think there is nothing more beautiful than making music with your kids; I consider it a privilege.’

While Matteo added: ‘Singing these songs together, feeling the holiday warmth with my family is something really special’.
‘That’s what Christmas is about – making memories together to cherish forever. It’s really exciting to think that people will have a copy of our album sitting wrapped under the tree.’
The album will include existing favourites and new songs, as well as featuring solo tracks, duets and trio performances.

The first single to be released, on September 8, is The Greatest Gift, which features all three family members and is a brand new song written and arranged for the album.
For young Virginia, this is her first appearance on an album, having previously joined her father on stage in 2020.
While Matteo has already followed in his father’s footsteps and is enjoying the beginning of his own successful solo recording career, after signing to Capitol Records in 2019.

The album has been produced by composer and multi-Grammy and Academy Award nominee Stephan Moccio who’s worked with the likes of Barbra Streisand, Miley Cyrus and Celine Dion.
The songs featured on the record will include Away in a Manger, Feliz Navidad and The First Noël.
In April 2020, Andrea broke records with his emotionally charged Music for Hope performance from the historic Duomo cathedral in Milan.
The Easter performance ranks amongst the biggest musical live streams of all-time and the largest simultaneous audience for a classical live stream in YouTube history.
