Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli will come back to Romania in the summer of 2017, with two concerts to be held in Bucharest’s Constitutiei Square (June 22) and on Cluj Arena in Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania on June 25.
The first part of the concerts will be dedicated to famous world opera airs and in the second part the tenor will perform new songs on his latest albums, “Cinema” and “Romanza- the 20th anniversary edition”.
