Opera – distinguished beauty, chic, style and pure singing. Today we take a look at the world’s most famous opera singers – who’s on this list? All the stars you’ve surely heard of. Here are the famous opera singers!

Luciano Pavarotti

In 2007, we said goodbye to an all-time star – the Italian opera singer, a tenor with an incredible voice. Considered one of the greatest singers of the 20th century, and these words are in no way exaggerated. One of the tenor’s performances at the Metropolitan Opera even made it into the Guinness Book of Records, and in 1990 he appeared at the opening of the World Cup in Italy.

Andrea Bocelli

This is a genius who basically needs no introduction. He was born in 1958 in Italy. Tenor, but also a composer and music producer. The whole world knows him, everyone can hum a fragment of the songs he sings, recall his characteristic look (long hair, closed eyes). Recently, a movie inspired by his life was made, and in 2021 in Poland, despite the pandemic, a concert was held at which he performed together with his son. No wonder he is the most famous singer in the world. Interestingly, Bocelli is also active in the pop music genre.
