Il Divo Tickets

Il Divo News and Information Il Divo, the brain child of pop super-producer Simon Cowell, includes singers Carlos Marin, Urs Buhler, David Miller and Sebastien Izambard. The name of the group means "diving male (performer)" in Italian.
The group came together as a result of "Popstars - The Rivals" - they auditioned for the Italian talent competition, and were voted out by "Nasty Nick" - Simon Cowell disagreed, and put his money where his mouth is - and signed them to his record label.

The idea for the group came to Cowell after listening to Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightmans rendition of Con te Partiro - he enjoyed the combination of classical music and lyrical voices. He put together a multinational quartet in the same vein as The Three Tenors.

Cowell brought together American tenor Miller, Spanish baritone Marin, French pop star Izambard and two classically trained tenors - Swiss Buhler and American Miller.

The group released a self-titled album "Il Divo" in 2004 - the collection included the hits "Unbreak My Heart," "Mama," Frank Sinatras "My Way, and a number of other tracks. The album was wildly popular in both America and in the UK - it achieved a spot in the Top 5 Record Charts in 25 countries.

Since then, the pop phenomenon released several albums, including "Ancora," "The Christmas Collection," "Voices," and "Siempre." Their latest release, "The Promise," which includes songs in a variety of languages - was critically acclaimed. They also released a number of DVDs, including "Mama," "Encore," "Live at the Greek Theater," and two books - "Romancing the World" and "Our Music, Our Journey, Our Words."
