Sydney, AU. (Top40 Charts/ EMI MUSIC Australia) - The talented Tina Arena has been personally invited by world-renowned tenor Andrea Bocelli to perform live in concert this August. The two breathtaking voices will appear live across Australia and in Auckland, NZ. Tina is "exhilarated" at the prospects of working with a man who many consider to have one of the finest voices of our time. "I've been an Andrea Bocelli fan for a long time so having the opportunity to work with a man with such an amazing voice is just sublime," she said. It will be the first time Arena has performed with Bocelli. Tina will be taking time out from her UK recordings of the follow up "Songs of Love & Loss II" album to perform with maestro Bocelli across Australia. Promoter Craig McMahon said in a statement, "Andrea Bocelli heard Tina's album and was enthralled. He invited her to join him on stage when he comes to Australia for his tour. I think Tina's voice is exceptional, and that she is the right singer to perform the duets with Andrea." Before the tour reaches Australia, Tina will perform with Bocelli in where else but... Lithuania. Australian and NZ tour dates are as follows: August 20 - Auckland - Vector Arena August 22 - Brisbane Brisbane Entertainment Centre August 24 - Sydney Acer Arena August 27 - Melbourne Rod Laver Arena August 30 - Perth Burswood Dome
