Il Divo

Wicked Game

Genre: Classical

“Il Divo divide their time between soft pop standards like Roy Orbison’s “Crying,” Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina,” and Chris Isaak’s title track and poppified classical, both reaching the same slickly bombastic yet never overwhelming middle ground.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

Beautifully recorded and performed, Live at the Royal Albert Hall conveys all the drama of Adele's music and is the perfect companion piece to 21.” Matt Collar, Rovi
