At the 96th Academy Awards, Andrea Bocelli surprised the audience with a touching performance, singing Time to Say Goodbye alongside his son, Matteo. Accompanied by a string quartet and dancers. The tribute honored departed actors, musicians, and industry figures, including Ryuichi Sakamoto, Robbie Robertson, and Matthew Perry.
Beginning the year celebrating Andrea Bocelli's 30-year career journey, the performance introduced a new version of the beloved song Con te partirò, which first gained fame in 1995 and made Bocelli a well-known name.
“It is the song of my life,” Bocelli said. “It is the melody that represents me in the eyes of the world; reinventing it, thanks to the collaboration with Hans Zimmer, and singing it together with my son Matteo, represents an exciting challenge.”
Matteo Bocelli added to his father’s comments: Time to Say Goodbye is more than a song to me, it’s my family’s national anthem, it’s the soundtrack to hundreds of memories.
“Singing it with my father in a new orchestration is a great honor, and to sing it on the Oscars stage is simply a dream come true!”
