Andrea Bocelli has responded to Timothée Chalamet's recent comments about opera and ballet by inviting him to a concert so he could experience them up close.
In an interview with People, the tenor said he was surprised by the actor's statement, which implied that these are art forms that "nobody cares about."
"We often keep our distance from something we haven't truly experienced ," said Andrea Bocelli, adding: "Opera and ballet are arts that have spanned centuries and continue to touch the human heart, because they respond to a deep need for beauty, truth and emotion."
He added: "They are not arts of the past, but living languages that continue to move us, make us think, and unite different generations."
The tenor, who has sold over 90 million records worldwide, said he would be happy to welcome the actor to one of his concerts: "I am convinced that a sensitive artist like Timoteo may one day discover that opera and dance stem from the same source of emotions. If at some point he is curious, I will be happy to welcome him as a guest at one of my concerts . " "Sometimes it only takes a few minutes listening to this music live to understand why, after so many centuries, it continues to be loved all over the world," he noted.
