Sublime Northern Italian sights, thundering passion, and poignant memories infuse Tuscan Skies, Andrea Bocelli's personal concert documentary. However one feels about the famed tenor's range in classical music, there is no denying the white-hot emotion he loads into pop material. Fresh on the heels of his bestselling Romanza concert video, Tuscan Skies is a wondrous musical travelogue that further confirms Bocelli's command of the love song. The singer also shows his composing skills here, co-writing three of the songs. The opener, "Melodramma," tells of Tuscany's people and rustic atmosphere, evoking the scent of wine and the aura of the hills and the fields of his adored homeland. Later, "L'Incontro" brings in one of the singer's biggest fans -- U2's Bono -- who movingly reads a Bocelli poem about the bond between a father and his newborn child. Also included is a previously unreleased song, "Tornera la Neve," available only on the DVD or VHS version. As much as Bertolucci's Stealing Beauty or Il Postino, Tuscan Skies conveys a total picture of this breathtakingly beautiful land, richly weaving melody with memory. Songs include:- Melodramma
