Tenor Ivanhoe and Chanel Dilecta illuminate the stars in “Cosmos”
On his most recent single, “Cosmos,” tenor Ivanhoe teams up with 15-year-old Italian Chanel Dilecta to take us on an interstellar voyage through space and soul. These are two worlds, two generations, two profoundly expressive artists who can make a story linger. Ivanhoe has developed his own sound, mixing operatic pop with warm, soft rock and a hint of classic pop. He is always held in place by his unique combination of mysticism and romanticism.” Those are the elements that spring most powerfully to life in “Cosmos.” His voice is rich, yearning, carrying the listener into a sonorous soundscape that’s grand and intimate at once.
Then there’s Chanel Dilecta, she’s only 15 but sings so maturely and acts onstage even older. Good in junior Eurovision 2022 for Italy, Chanel is a dancer, pianist, and storyteller who moves through and between any art form she touches with grace and ease. In “Cosmos,” her voice provides a radiant counterpoint to Ivanhoe’s earthy sound. Together, they pick at the richer themes of love and cosmic destiny, applying celestial metaphors to illustrate two souls perpetually in search of and drawn toward each other. The lyrics resonate with a feeling of destiny, awe, and interconnection, and “Cosmos” is as emotionally powerful as it is musically plush.
The production is glossy but not overpowering, giving room for the vocals and emotional inflection to spread out. There’s a theatricality to all this, an operatic undercurrent that’s never leaden. Instead, the track swoops, twinkles, and grows like the galaxy it takes its name from. “Cosmos” is what occurs when talent and sincerity intersect, when a tenor’s dreamworld calls it the tragic leap smashes up against a rising star’s light. And when Ivanhoe and Chanel Dilecta sing to each other, they sing to something much greater, and they beckon us to look up and listen.
