A surprise performance by Andrea Bocelli and his son Matteo moved hearts at the 2024 Oscars
The 2024 Oscars were an emotional night where Hollywood came together to cheer for its achievements and remember those we’ve lost. The event highlighted the best movies of the year and honored important figures in film who have died.
During the ceremony on March 10th, there was a special part called “In Memoriam” that paid tribute to some big names in movies who have passed away, like Matthew Perry, Chita Rivera, and Tina Turner. This tribute featured dancers performing to music played by a live orchestra, creating a respectful and heartfelt moment.
One of the most touching parts of the night was when Andrea Bocelli and his son Matteo performed “Time to Say Goodbye (Con te partirò)” together. They both wore blue jackets and sang with a lot of emotion, touching everyone who was watching.
People all over the world were amazed by this performance and talked about it a lot online.
One person wrote on social media, “Andrea Bocelli and his son’s performance at the 96th Oscars was incredibly touching. It really shows how powerful music can be in creating moments we’ll never forget.”
Another person said, “The song ‘Time To Say Goodbye’ sung by Andrea Bocelli and his son Matteo was breathtaking,” a feeling many others agreed with, finding the performance very moving.
For Andrea, being at the Oscars again was extra special because it had been 25 years since he last performed there. This time, he and Matteo were celebrating the 30th anniversary of “Time to Say Goodbye” with a version that was unforgettable for how it made people feel. They also had a music video made by the famous Hans Zimmer, showing how music can deeply touch people.
Andrea talked about how grateful he was to be at the Oscars again, especially performing with his son Matteo. He told A.frame magazine, “Returning to the Oscars feels like a big thank you from me to music and life itself. Singing with Matteo is such a happiness. We hope our music shows our love for it, for each other, and the good vibes we want to spread.”
