Il Divo is the brainchild of Simon Cowell, pop guru and American Idol curmudgeon; he was inspired by a collaboration between Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli's classical crossover "Con te Partiro." The Idol mastermind carried out a worldwide search between 2001 and 2003 for international singers willing to accompany this style- he came up with American tenor David Miller, Spanish Baritone Carlos Marin, Swiss tenor Urs Buhler and French pop artist Sebastien Izambard. Honing in on the fairly new operatic pop subgenre of music, Il Divo has reached sales of 22 million with six albums under their belt! Singing in English, Spanish French, Italian and Latin, Il Divo has received worldwide acclaim for thier highly diverse sound and the sheer popularily of Il Divo tickets and more than enough proof that these talented men are here to stay.

But don't think that Simon did all the work, each member of Il Divo has a well developed past in musical training and performance making Il Divo tickets that more valuable. Urs Buhler began singing in a local choir at the young age of five, he also played the violin, clarinet, piano, drums and guitar. He later studied voice at the Sweelink Conservatorium and continued training under French Tenor Christian Papis and Stockholm's Royal Opera tenor Gosta Winbergh.

Sebastien Izambard, the pop star of the group, had a solo slbum in circulation before Il Divo and he is the only member of Il Divo that is not classically trained in opera or operatic pop.
