Bocelli, who conveys confidence and mastery in both classical and pop genres, received rave reviews during his sold-out United States tour last winter. "His tone was smooth and brimmed with emotion…he owned Madison Square Garden," celebrated the New York Post. Florida's Sun Sentinel concurred, stating, "Bocelli's singing moves people…He brought suave phrasing and affecting emotion to an arrangement of Italian songs." The Hollywood Reporter rejoiced, "(Bocelli) brings a passion and joy to such familiar (classical) pieces" and proclaimed, "it was a triumphant appearance."
