Early Life

Andrea Bocelli was born on September 22nd of 1958 in Lajatico, Italy.

His mother dismissed the advice, and Bocelli was born with congenital glaucoma, a condition that would seriously affect his eyesight.

By the age of six, Andrea Bocelli displayed a fascination with music, as it was one of the few things which brought him joy. After learning how to play the piano at a young age, Bocelli went on to learn the flute, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, guitar, and drums. Although he became a skilled musician with various instruments, his own voice proved to be the most fulfilling musical outlet. As a young boy, Bocelli listened to famous opera singers and dreamed of becoming a professional tenor later in life.

Although Bocelli could still see to some degree before the age of 12, he became completely blind before reaching his teens after an accident during a game of soccer. He was playing as a goalkeeper and suffered a hemorrhage after the ball struck his eye. Even more so than before, Bocelli became obsessed with singing.

Eventually, he graduated from secondary school and moved on to law school at the University of Pisa, where he obtained a degree. While he was still a student, Bocelli performed at night in piano bars. On one of these nights, he met his future wife, Enrica Cenzatti. Eventually, he graduated from law school and acted as a court-appointed lawyer for about a year.
