Earlier in 2017 when young Matteo Bocelli participated alongside Jennifer Lopez in the shooting for Guess, people believed him to be just another upcoming model. Little did they know that there is much more to Matteo. He left his audience completely stunned after he performed a duet alongside his iconic Italian tenor dad, Andrea Bocelli. Their single titled Fall on Me from Andrea’s 2018 album, Si was well received by fans and since then, the young talent has been garnering an admirable number of followers who just can’t get enough of him.
Even though he is still a student at Lucca Conservatory studying vocal performance, Matteo is gradually drawing attention for his singing talents away from the shadows of his dad. His debut public performance was accomplished at an Italian open-air amphitheater located in Lajatico, Tuscany, popularly known as the Teatro del Silenzio. Matteo performed there in his capacity as a tenor and he was just 18 at the time. March 2017 saw him joining the David Foster and Friends competition which was organized for the Horatio Alger Award in Washington.
Matteo Bocelli’s Biography
Born in Forte Dei Marmi Italy on the 8th of October 1997, Matteo Bocelli is the son of the music legend Andrea Bocelli and Enrica Cenzatti, his first wife. The Italian national spent his early years alongside an older brother, Amos Bocelli born on the 22nd of February 1995. However, he has a younger half-sister, Virginia Bocelli born out of the relationship between Andrea Bocelli and his manager Veronica Berti after the end of his marriage with Matteo’s mum. Veronica later became Matteo’s stepmom following her nuptials with Andrea on Virginia’s second birthday.

Matteo began studying the piano at a very tender age and by the time he hit his teens, the rising star equally developed a love for sports but it is obvious that music is his forte as he is currently studying vocal performance at the Lucca Conservatory.
