Her incredible voice is known around the world and now it seems the talent runs in the family.
Renowned tenor Andrea Bocelli was joined on stage by his 24-year-old son Matteo and ten-year-old daughter Virginia in London on Friday.
The trio delighted fans in the O2 arena with a section of classic tunes as they sang from their festive album titled A Family Christmas.

Andrea, 64, cut a dapper figure in a purple print jacket which he wore over a black waistcoat and trousers.
He completed the look with a crisp white shirt and black Dickie bow as his silver locks were neatly parted.
Meanwhile, Matteo opted for a more traditional black suit and Virgina looked lovely in a gold baroque evening gown.

All dressed in white, they huddled together for a festive themed shoot surrounded by a beautifully decorated tree, gifts and a roaring fireplace.
The family said: “We offer our intimate and heartfelt little gift to anyone who wishes to enjoy the Christmas soundtrack in the Bocelli house”.
Speaking of working with her children, Andrea said, “I think there’s nothing more beautiful than making music with your children; I consider this a privilege.

While Matteo added, “Singing these songs together, feeling the warmth of the holidays with my family is something really special.”
‘That’s what Christmas is all about – creating memories together to cherish forever. It’s really exciting to think that people will have a copy of our album under the tree.’
The album will include existing favorites and new songs, plus solo tracks, duets and trio performances.

For young Virginie, this is her first appearance on an album, after joining her father on stage in 2020.
While Matteo has already followed in his father’s footsteps and is enjoying the start of his own successful solo recording career, having signed to Capitol Records in 2019.
