Nessun Rimorso

La signora Gretel Fernsby, novantun anni e una lingua ancora vispa e tagliente, vive da decenni in un bell’appartamento londinese che affaccia su Hyde Park: ha giorni tranquilli, non privi di serenità, nonostante abbia visto, con i suoi occhi di bambina, l’orrore della Germania nazista. Di quando e del perché, dodicenne, era scappata da una Berlino rasa al suolo, la signora Fernsby non parla mai. Non parla del difficile dopoguerra, trascorso a Parigi con la madre. Soprattutto non parla del fratellino Bruno, né del padre, ufficiale in comando di uno dei campi di sterminio più famigerati del Reich. Ma i ricordi bruciano sempre, alimentati dalla fiamma della paura che qualcuno scopra la verità, dal rimorso per ciò che è stato e non ha rimedio. Quando una giovane coppia si trasferisce nell’appartamento sotto di lei, a dispetto della riservatezza che si è imposta, la signora Fernsby stringe amicizia con il piccolo Henry…

Come può un uomo far credere agli altri di amare follemente una donna e poi fare di tutto per disintegrarla emotivamente e psicologicamente? Come può compiacersi e godere del dolore che provano le sventurate che si innamorano di lui? Come può razionalmente e meticolosamente programmare la distruzione di un altro essere umano senza provare alcun senso di colpa, nessuna compassione e nessun rimorso?

After emerging in the late 20th century in a duet with Luciano Pavarotti, Italian vocalist Andrea Bocelli established himself as an enduring international star of both classical and pop music, even earning the label "the fourth tenor." With a rich tone that moves gracefully between powerful opera arias and tender pop balladry, Bocelli has charted in multiple countries with every album since his 1994 debut, Il Mare Calmo Della Sera. Often referred to as his fourth LP, the 1997 pop compilation Romanza marked his breakthrough in the U.K. and U.S. and topped the charts in over a dozen countries. Bocelli went on to record with some of the world's biggest pop stars, including Céline Dion and Ed Sheeran, and classical icons like Placido Domingo and Cecilia Bartoli, while continuing to chart internationally with classical, pop, and full opera recordings. His 2009 holiday album, My Christmas, went to number one in Italy and has sold over three million copies in the U.S. alone.

Reflecting his very first love, Opera – The Ultimate Collection is the definitive collection of Bocelli's own beloved and favourite operatic selections that have inspired his career over the years. Bocelli explains, "The main objective of this album is to draw people closer to the opera, in particular to the whole opera. So I chose the tracks that are the most engaging the first time you hear them. I hope I have made the right choice and it encourages people to discover more."
