Editor's note

Il Divo's operatic pop for a global audience

Four voices, one polished sound blending classical technique with pop emotion.

For their blend of classical technique and pop reach, listen to 'Héroe' or 'Amazing Grace.' That's the sound they built a career on.

They made operatic singing feel approachable for listeners who might never buy a classical album. Songs like 'Héroe' and 'Mama' show how they wrapped familiar melodies in those rich harmonies. Simon Cowell put them together in 2003, and they found an international audience right from that first self-titled record.

The group started with Urs Bühler, Sébastien Izambard, David Miller, and Carlos Marín. They kept a consistent sound across albums, mixing covers like 'The Power Of Love (La Fuerza Mayor)' with some original material. Carlos Marín's death in 2021 changed the lineup they'd maintained for nearly two decades.

Archive material and source history

Il Divo formed in 2003 when producer Simon Cowell brought together four singers: Urs Bühler, Sébastien Izambard, David Miller, and Carlos Marín. Their first album, simply called 'Il Divo,' did well internationally. They've recorded songs like 'The Power Of Love (La Fuerza Mayor)' and 'Mama,' mixing operatic singing with more familiar pop melodies.

Their lineup included a mix of tenors and baritones, which gave their harmonies a particular range. Over several albums, they worked on both classic covers and some original material. Carlos Marín died in 2021, which changed the group's dynamic.

They've kept a consistent sound across their releases, appealing to listeners who might not typically seek out classical vocal music. Songs such as 'Héroe' and 'The Time Of Our Lives' show their approach, polished, emotive, and built for broad audiences.
