The first operatic pop band that springs to mind is most certainly Il Divo. The quartet’s theatrical performances and exquisite voices never disappoint.
This time, they gave the well-known Dolly Parton song «I Will Always Love You» a new spin. Because of their original rendition, this performance from October 2014 in Hamburg, Germany, was a huge hit.
Simon Cowell formed the four-piece group in 2003. He looked all over the world for the best members of the group and was successful. American tenor David Miller, Swiss tenor Urs Bühler, French tenor Sébastien Izambard, and German baritone Carlos Marin will perform. As a result of Cowell’s efforts, many musical groupings and single artists, including Susan Boyle, Leona Lewis, Fifth Harmony, and One Direction, were found and, in some cases, signed.
They are regarded as a “classical crossover ensemble.” They had a number of multilingual hits, such as “Regresa a Mi” (Unbreak My Heart), which was initially performed by Toni Braxton, and “The Time of Our Lives,” a duet with Braxton “— which served as the 2006 FIFA World Cup’s anthem. They have performed duets with adored and extraordinarily brilliant musicians like Celine Dion. They have a duet together called “I Believe In You” (Je crois en toi), which is off Dion’s 2005 album “On ne change pas.” On their 2018 album “Timeless,” which is titled “Hola,” they even include a Spanish cover of the Adele smash song “Hello.”” This performance is only one of the quartet’s many outstanding successes.
During this performance, the group sang «I Will Always Love You» by Dolly Parton. Although Whitney Houston performed the song in the 1992 film «The Bodyguard,» it is best remembered as the version written by Parton and first published in 1974.
The romantic suspense film starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner. The soundtrack, which included songs such as «I’m Every Woman» and other popular tunes, earned the film a Grammy for Album of the Year. Despite the fact that the song was made popular by two of the biggest female voices in entertainment, Il Divo gave it their own spin.
