Nessun dorma

Euro 2020 was launched in style on Friday night with a stunning opening ceremony that included plenty of artistic flair before Italy defeated Turkey 3-0 in the opening game.

The highlight was a stirring rendition of Nessun Dorma, one of football's most famous songs, by Italian opera tenor Andrea Bocelli. 

Award-winning Greek composer Vangelis has not only found himself in the lofty company of Giacomo Puccini, Gustav Holst and Maurice Ravel, but has also knocked them out of the park after his emblematic theme song "Chariots of Fire" was voted by listeners of the UK's Classic FM as the top selection in the Sporting Music Countdown.

It seems that the fifteen-year-old granddaughter of Luciano Pavarotti has inherited his incredible talent for singing.

Teenager Sislena Caparrosa participated in an Italian talent show and blew the audience and the judges away with her voice, when she performed classic Nessun Dorma.

The judges were moved by her performance, wiping away tears from their eyes.
