World premiere on Capri: Jamie Cullum & Andrea Bocelli

For the first time in history and as an exclusive world premiere, internationally acclaimed jazz singer and pianist Jamie Cullum is going to perform together with Andrea Bocelli, Italian superstar, as a part of the Big Art Festival on the 20th of July.

Big Art stands for the most exclusive events, luxury, red carpets, popping flashlights, celebrities and a passion for art. Organized in cooperation with the top five-star hotels, the festival hosts events that are especially designed for the VIP guests, guaranteeing unforgettable evenings among friends at the most beautiful places on the planet. Its format usually features a gala dinner served at lavishly decorated tables and stage technique of the highest standards, as well as a concert of a famous pop star, a stand-up comedy show or even a gala concert with several soloists and bands. That's why the location for an upcoming extraordinary event will be Capri Palace Jumeirah, the best and most exclusive five-star hotel on the Italian island and one of the most luxurious hotels of the European continent. Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Mediterranean landscape and hosting works of art by prestigious contemporary artists, the Capri Palace will offer the most spectacular stage for this unique event that will, perhaps, become one of the biggest cultural highlights in 2022. 

Jamie Cullum, the English pianist and singer, is one of the most renowned jazz musicians on the planet and a superstar in every sense of the word, masterfully bewitch and enchanting his audiences worldwide with just his velvety voice and a piano. As one of the very few worthy successors of the grand era of crooning, marked by iconic singers like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr., Jamie Cullum is far from being a mere epigone. As a true artist, he is capable of making standards from the Great American Songbook as much his very own as a pop song by Barbadian pop icon Rihanna. The songs he composes and performs himself are already part of the repertoire of great singers around the globe.

Speaking of Cullum's partner in music for the upcoming festival, Andrea Bocelli has won the 44th Sanremo Music Festival in 1994. Two years later, he published one of the best-selling singles of all time, “Time To Say Goodbye” (“Con te partirò”), with British Soprano Sarah Brightman. This single has ultimately brought him fame worldwide. Since then, Bocelli has been constantly performing with the greatest musicians of all genres – among them operatic stars like Anna Netrebko or pop singers like Bryan Adams, Ed Sheeran and many others.

The upcoming concert will be accompanied by a top-notch gala dinner, combining extraordinary music, haute cuisine by renowned chefs and a distinguished service. During the performance, Jamie Cullum and Andrea Bocelli will also share the stage with Keti Topuria, one of the biggest Georgian superstars – a unique encounter that nobody should be missing.
