Biography

Il Divo were assembled by high-trousered impresario Simon Cowell, who sought to take advantage of an under-tapped public market for operatic-pop.

Cowell gathered together a multi-national selection of attractive young male singers -- Urs Bühler, Sébastien Izambard, David Miller and Carlos Marín -- and by 2005 they had released their debut album Il Divo. The album reached the top of the charts in 13… Read more in Amazon's Il Divo Store

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Siempre, Il Divo's third swipe at the snobs who aim to relegate classical crossover to retirement community socials and suburban dentist offices, is as apt to snare listeners as either of its first two multimillion-selling discs: the singing is as rich and romantic, and the material as warm and enveloping. If there's anything missing, it's an overdue sense of adventure--tracks like "Nights in White Satin" and "Somewhere," like "Unbreak My Heart" and "All by Myself" before them, provide enough adult-contemporary swagger to keep anyone who has owned a couple of Streisand CDs in his or her day happy, but they come at the expense of a full-on exploration of classical no man's land; which may be this prefab, Simon Cowell-helmed act's ticket to getting out from under critics' boot heels. "La Vida Sin Amor," "Un Regalo Que Te Dio La Vida," and "Una Noche"--Siempre's three boldest tracks--provide a taste, but for now Il Divo seems content to follow a safe-bet formula. Fans won't be disappointed--overall, this is a lush, wholly unblemished disc. But those who have been taken to task by high-minded music bullies before shouldn't be surprised if they feel the need to keep the mute button handy once again. --Tammy La Gorce

3.0 out of 5 stars Short and sweet, November 24, 2006
I will keep this review short and sweet. I recently saw these talented guys open for Barbra Streisand in San Jose, CA. They have booming voices, great prescence, potential, etc....however, their producers need to pick new songs and not have them sing songs that have been done a million times over and done better. Also, they have now released 4 cd's since early 2005! Their management needs to take them into the studio, take their time and put out something stellar! They are MORE THAN CAPABLE OF IT! I don't fault the guys for this lackluster release, I fault their management team!

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Formulaic, December 3, 2006
By James A. Holland (Las Vegas, NV USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well, I really like Il Divo for their voices and style, but I have to say that the cookie cutter approach their producers are using is getting rather staid.

If you own any of the previous 3 releases Il Divo has churned out in less than 3 years of existence, then you have already heard this new album!
Same musical approach, same vocal arrangements, and yes...same languishing musical selections.
The only thing that is different of course are the actual songs....all of which are covers made famous by other major artists before them.

My biggest problem with this CD is not the fact that it is only 41 minutes / 10 songs long...though that does seem odd in an age were 12-16 tracks is the norm.
My real issue is in that they covered CARUSO, which is one of my favorite songs and totally butchered it...literally!
Most of the people listening to this CD will not know the lyrics to this song by heart as I do, but they have chopped up the lyrics in a way where the song makes no sense at all anymore. They've cut entire sections out of the song and transposed it down so low that it lost it's dramatic effect...much like Josh Groban did...but at least he sang the WHOLE song...as written.

Oddly there were also a number of linguistic errors with this song and other Italian songs on here. Seems their Italian pronunciation has fallen by the wayside since their initial release. Again, this will not keep the average Il Divo fan from loosing sleep, but it bothered me.

The major saving grace on this CD is of course their voices....Carlos' deep and powerful bari/tenor sound seems to dominate over the other guys and really adds to each song they sing.

I really hope that with the next release, which I imagine to be due in less than a year given the current production record, they will be allowed to take some risks and venture into more artistically challanging directions, perhaps following Bocelli into the Latin standard field, or embrace some mid-tempo groove type songs such as Luther Vandross was known for.

I hope they get a chance to change their approach in the future, but as long as legions of middle aged house wives buy their products in droves, this may be nothing but a idle notion for the time being.

5.0 out of 5 stars Candy for the ears, December 5, 2006
By Lady Bug (Watertown, NY) - See all my reviews
I've read other reviews of people complaining about the length of the CD compared to other artists. IL DIVO are not other artists. The work that goes into their music and their vocalizations and languages and being able to convert certain songs I'm sure takes a lot of time. I'd rather have a top quality album of 40-some minutes rather than a longer album of less than quality music. IL DIVO is candy for the ears and if you have their DVD, they're candy for the eyes(for us ladies). It's all about beautiful music, REAL music. Romance is alive and well, Thank you Sebastien, Carlos, David, Urs, and also Simon for founding IL DIVO. I've not yet had the honor of seeing them in concert, hopefully day I will.
