American duo Voce Nova consisting of tenor Gilad Paz and soprano Natalia Tsvi (featured on “America’s Got Talent”) will be releasing ‘Time To Say Goodbye’ on January 14th. The pair shared a little more about the new track and how they made one of the most famous crossover pieces unique in their own words.

After the success of “O Holy Night”, our first-ever global streaming release, which was also featured on Classical Crossover Magazine’s ”New Releases Chats” on YouTube last month, we are excited to share our newest song that will hit all platforms this week – “Time to Say Goodbye”!

This duet by Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman is such a classical crossover anthem and is one of the biggest and most beloved all-time hits of the genre, so it was a natural choice for our catalog of songs. Each of us heard this beautiful duet as a teen just starting to get into opera, so it also holds a special place in our hearts.

When we cover a famous and universally-loved song like this one, we feel that the only way for it to be different and to connect with the listener is by having something new to say, and by expressing it in a way that has not been done previously.

Giving it the VOCE NOVA treatment with the help of our music producer, Assaf Averbuch, and input from Lisa Katz-Paz, our co-producer, meant adding some modern electronic touches to it, as well as a rock edge.

We can’t wait for everyone to hear this release!

Gilad and Natalia
