Andrea Bocelli has performed some incredible duets over the years, from Celine Dion and Sarah Brightman to Sir Brian May.

And now he’s teamed up with fellow Italian Jannik Sinner, the world No 1 men’s singles tennis champion, for his latest single.

Although the maestro calls Polvere e Gloria (Dust & Glory) a duet, the 23-year-old sportsman doesn’t actually sing in the track below, but contributes through storytelling instead.

In a joint statement, the pair said: “Every life is a potential work of art: each of us bears the sweet responsibility of nurturing our talents in the daily acrobatics of living, pursuing our dreams while remaining steadfastly true to our values. This duet is such a bold leap that it has ignited our passion, born of a shared and unwavering desire to express of our deep belief that nothing is impossible. Values bring people together and transcend all barriers….”

Bocelli and Sinner added: “And so, here we are, together, with a small gift: a song, to celebrate dedication, authenticity, love for life, and the importance (and priceless beauty) of the journey; often far more enriching and moving than any possible destination. Dust and Glory is all this: music, lyrics, song, in a joyful and unexpected encounter... A wager to join voices in honouring the values we believe in… The ones that lead each of us (in our own way, with what we have) to commit, to act, to love and respect each other, to grow every day, and to become truly victorious: champions of humanity, artists of life.”
