Editorial Review:
2006 studio album that reflects the multi-national character of the group; the songs are not all sung in English, but drift between Spanish, English and Italian. However they are worded, all use the emotional Esperanto of love. The group's debut album, IL Divo hit the #1 slot on both Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com after a breakout career-defining appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" (April 5, 2005) where the quartet performed its interpretation of Toni Braxton's ‘Unbreak My Heart (‘Regressa A Mi’). Highlights on Ancora include 'Isabel' a duet with Celine Dion and IL Divo's cover of Mariah Carey's 'Hero'. Columbia.

Description of Ancora:
There are those who will tell you that Il Divo, the multinational quartet of sharp-dressed crooners, synthesize Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion to concoct something worse. And they will not be entirely incorrect. Yet it's hard to argue with a sensation that has entrenched itself so deeply so fast, and a first spin of Ancora makes it harder still: while predictable selections like "I Believe in You," a duet with Celine, and "You Raise Me Up," a Spanish-sung Josh Groban retread, ratchet up the treacle, the foreign-language tracks that are truly foreign lend this foursome enough Euro mystique to redeem them. Particularly melt-worthy is "Poor Que Tu M'aimes Encore," the closer. Singing in tongues, on the face of it, sounds like a bad idea. Ancora counters that with bold voices, brimming hearts, and its cover--if the songs aren't quite enough to seduce you, the singers might just do the trick. --Tammy La Gorce

2009-02-09 - This is the best music I have heard in a very long time. I got to go see Il Divo in concert 2 yrs ago when they were in Houston, Tx. They were just awesome, the place was packed. I have all their music. That's how good they are !! :) Ancora
Outstanding in every way.
2008-12-28 - I have no words to explain how Il Divo has made my life more enjoyable. I am looking forward to more of their work in the future. They are the best young entertainers in the world.
Bravo Il Divo
2008-12-12 - Ancora is by far my favorite of all of Il Divo albums. I play this album often. Their other albums are equally great but for some reason this is my favorite one. I have just about all of Il Divo's albums. When I feel tired due to the hassle of the day, I play this album and I feel great. What a mood elevator this album is. Keep up the good work Il Divo.
