Johnny Depp performs with Andrea Bocelli in 30th anniversary concert footage | Music | Entertainment


Last night, Andrea Bocelli performed his second of three concerts this week in celebration of the 30th anniversary of his career.

The star-studded event held at the Teatro del Silenzio in the Italian maestro’s hometown of Lajatico, Tuscany had him joined but the likes of Ed Sheeran, Russell Crowe, Will Smith and Johnny Depp.

After Sheeran’s duet of Perfect Symphony, Bocelli was joined on stage by the Pirates of the Caribbean star on the acoustic guitar.

The pair then gave a rendition of En Aranjuez con tu amor as a tribute to the late Jeff Beck.

Depp was also captured backstage chatting and laughing with Bocelli’s family and his fellow Hollywood stars, later calling it “a wonderful evening”.

Bocelli recently said of the chance to perform with Depp: “A disarmingly charming actor who has brought countless iconic characters to life on the big screen, this eclectic artist’s musical talents are equally intense: a bona fide rockstar loved and applauded everywhere.

“I fondly recall playing and singing with Johnny Depp when he visited my home in Tuscany. We’re happy to announce that this unexpected pairing will perform once more – and this time in public, as his fans will be thrilled to hear. We want to thank Johnny for accepting our invitation: it will be a joy to welcome him to the Teatro del Silenzio stage”.

The third and final Andrea Bocelli 30th anniversary concert will be at the same Italian venue on Friday even with the likes of Shania Twain and Sir Brian May performing.
