The Promise (Luxury Edition)

Performer: Il Divo
Distributor: Sony Music Distribution (

Notes: Il Divo: Carlos Marin, David Miller , Sebastien Izambard, Urs Buhler (vocals). Audio Remasterer: Vlado Meller. Arranger: Dave Arch. With the arrival of THE PROMISE, the remarkable success of vocal crossover act Il Divo is certain to continue. Comprising four classically trained singers, Il Divo alighted upon a unique sound by bringing operatic technique to romantic and popular songs. The result--as heard on the #1 albums SIEMPRE and ANCORA--is sustained and refined on this 2008 release. With its lush arrangements, songs sung in Spanish, Italian, and English, and the quartet members' gorgeous voices, THE PROMISE may not pack many surprises, but that won't come as a disappointment to devoted fans. Songs include "Amazing Grace," Abba's "The Winner Takes It All," and the Holly Johnson and Trevor Horn classic "The Power of Love," make this effort another dazzling showcase for the voices of Il Divo.

Billboard (p.77) - "They're happy to pull every heartstring known to man -- or at least middle-aged woman -- which gives their crescendo-crammed records a kind of refreshing honesty."

The brainchild of music industry player and infamous American Idol judge Simon Cowell, Il Divo is a pop/classical male vocal ensemble made up of four international heart-throbs (French, Swiss, Spanish, and American). The duo's two multi-lingual albums (in 2004 and 2005) have both been smash hits and have positioned Il Divo as something of an adult-contemporary version of the Spice Girls, albeit with some serious vocal chops.
