		With much of the album sung in Italian, the sleeve notes have been well thought out, with the lyrics to each track included along with a brief, but informative, introduction to each piece explaining who wrote it, when and why it was chosen for the album.
		Amici Forever is also sure to spark some interest in South Africa in that the Soprano singer in Amici is none other than Tsakane Valentine, who played the role of Maria in West Side Story at the prestigious Spier Opera Festival to great acclaim.
		It's evident that Amici Forever are breaking new ground with their album, and in fact their band as a concept, as they decided to title their debut album 'The Opera band', just in case there was any confusion with your run-of-the-mill pop band.

	Amici Forever Re-Defines Opera (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Yes, you could say popera, but we're talking about Amici forever, known to some as the Opera Band.
		Bass-baritone Nick Garrett: "There seems to be a huge market for people who like strong classical singing but don't want to sit through a full-length opera to get that sort of vocal power." Besides Garrett and Sewell, Amici forever also includes sopranos Tsakane Valentine and Jo Appleby, as well as tenor David Habbin.
		But when we recorded it with Italian lyrics, it almost sounded like a different piece." Further proof of their acceptance by Everyman, for me anyway, was the fact that Amici forever's 2004 Atlantic City appearance was covered by the NY Daily News (metropolitan area folks know from whence I speak).
