Il Divo are back: refreshed, reinvigorated, and ready to remind the world just what we've been missing. The original and most popular operatic quartet return in November with their richest, most dynamic and diverse album, The Promise."People might be surprised by this album," suggests American tenor David Miller. "Our goal was to approach it with fresh ears and fresh spirits, and try some different things. We've still got all the cannons and fireworks, but there is more range, different dynamics, more light and shade, more colour.
It's a more complete album."Something crucial happened to Il Divo in the process of making this record. Four singers from different countries and different musical disciplines discovered a new unity of purpose. "We are more mature than when we started," according to Spanish baritone Carlos Marin. "We are not in the mode of being four solo singers anymore. We are a group.""We have gained a lot of trust in each other," elaborates Swiss tenor Urs Buhler. "We realised that what's best for Il Divo is best for each of us, cause we are Il Divo.
You can't separate one from the other."Or as French pop singer Sebastien Izambard puts it: "Il Divo became one."Il Divo were initially brought together by pop impresario Simon Cowell in 2004, following an extensive worldwide audition process. The virtuoso blending of operatic technique with romantic and popular song took the world by storm, with sales of over 22 million. Their first three albums, 'Il Divo', 'Ancora' and 'Siempre' scored 36 number 1 chart positions across 26 countries. But success was hard earned.
"In Il Divo, it's something special when we sing all together," adds Carlos. "It doesn't matter who sings the melody and who sings the harmony, it feels like a big wave, a tsunami is arriving. It's amazing, the feeling, its so powerful, even when I am on stage with the other guys singing, I still get goosebumps."
