Nearly 30,000 people applauded Andrea Bocelli as he celebrated the 30th anniversary of his career in Sofia on Saturday night, September 14.

The audience braved the rainy weather to attend the Italian tenor's two-hour performance at the Vasil Levski National Stadium. The legendary Andrea Bocelli was joined on stage by the National Philharmonic Choir "Svetoslav Obretenov" and the Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra, reports BTA.

Maestro Marcello Rota, who worked with Plácido Domingo and has been working with Andrea Bocelli for 25 years, conducted. Eighteen of the world's most famous opera arias, songs and film scores were performed by Bocelli, including La donna è mobile from Verdi's Rigoletto, the songs Mamma and O sole mio.
