HARTFORD, Conn. — Andrea Bocelli's show in Hartford on Saturday has been postponed due to health challenges, officials said.
The show was scheduled for December 9 at the XL Center but will now be part of Bocelli's beloved Valentine Tour in February 2024.
Details for the rescheduled February date will be announced next week and all tickets for the originally scheduled date will remain valid.
Bocelli released a statement following the announcement.
“The voice is a gift that I have received, it is an instrument that has been entrusted to me: I have always considered it my precise duty - and an honor, and a grace - to be able to share it with those who want to listen to it. For this reason, as long as I am given the strength, I will continue to travel and sing. For this reason, especially on tour, I preserve it with the rigor of an athlete, aware of the privilege and responsibility that I perceive, respecting the public first and foremost, but also the large quantity of people and professionalism that are involved....
It happens that an unexpected problem forces you to stop. It rarely happens, and in thirty years of militant concert playing I can count them on one hand, and yet, this time, it has happened and I have to accept it. I am truly sorry, first of all for each of those who have once again granted me their kindness. Looking forward to seeing all my dear friends in Hartford, CT in February.”
