David Foster and Andrea Bocelli first crossed paths around 1998 when the Italian operatic star recorded the Foster, Carole Bayer Sager composition of “The Prayer” which was released as a world-famous duet with Celine Dion. Later on, the Hitman co-wrote a couple of songs for Bocelli’s 2001 Cieli Di Toscana album including the beautiful “Mille Lune Mille Onde” that became one of the tenor’s most loved songs.

Late last month, world-class arranger Jeremy Lubbock passed away (June 4, 1931 to January 29, 2021). Mr. Lubbock was born in England and moved to Los Angeles in the late seventies. He was unanimously recognized as one of the best arrangers in the history of popular music. Mr. Lubbock would work alongside heavyweights including Quincy Jones, Pat Metheny, Burt Bacharach, Joni Mitchell and, of course, David Foster.
