Greek tenor, Mario Frangoulis has just completed his 3rd international album entitled, Beautiful Things. The album has been in the works for over two years, and was recorded in the U.S.A., Greece, and the United Kingdom with some of the greatest musicians and orchestras in the world. Beautiful Things is a classical-crossover CD that follows the successful releases of Sometimes I Dream and Follow Your Heart.
The album has very distinguished songwriters and composers from all over the world, such as: Stephan Moccio (Celine Dion, Josh Groban, Sarah Brightman), David Foster (songwriter and producer of Madonna, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Michael Buble), Francesco Sartori (Andrea Bocelli) Steve Wood and others. The result is a truly international and highly accessible collection of songs – there is something in Beautiful Things for everyone as the album is in English, Italian, French and Spanish – reaching a truly global audience.
The guest roster on Beautiful Things is just as impressive: famous actress and singer, Vanessa Williams, known for her Oscar winning song from the movie Pocahontas and for her TV rolls in the successful series Ugly Betty and Desperate Housewives sings the duet A Hero Is Inside. The “hot” young tenor Vittorio Grigolo, sings a duet dedicated to Maria Callas. Grigolo has appeared in key roles in the greatest opera houses in the world (The Metropolitan Opera, La Scala) and adds a wonderful dimension to the song Maria. The Greek diva, Alkistis Protopsalti adds tremendous Mediterranean energy and passion in her duet Rojo Violento sung with Frangoulis in Spanish.
