The setting for Bocelli’s Easter concert was an empty Duomo Cathedral located in the Italian city of Milan. The absence of anyone save himself and the organist are reminiscent of Christ’s empty tomb on Easter morning.

The stunning videography displays all of the intricate architecture and artistry of the beautiful church. Each detail is a representation of the homage the builders and artists paid to God.

Bocelli’s own gift of song is not only a gift to share with the people of the world but also a tribute raised to the risen Lord. His simple setlist is composed of five classic hymns of praise.

Bocelli begins with “Panis Angelicus,” and continues the concert with “Ave Maria,” “Sancta Maria,” and “Domine Deus.” In conclusion, Bocelli exits the cathedral and sings “Amazing Grace” to the entire city.

These beautiful songs are wonderful reminders to forever praise the one who sacrificed himself for us. The Easter message resounds in the joyful words raised in worship to God on high.
