Here’s How OSA International and AbsenLive’s Saturn Series LEDs Make Andrea Bocelli Look So Good
As the lights dim and the music begins, Andrea Bocelli steps onto the stage. His voice—full of emotion and shaped by years of experience—fills the air. A world-renowned Italian tenor, celebrated for bridging classical and popular music, Bocelli has performed at major venues around the world, collaborated with artists across genres, and remains one of the most beloved classical crossover artists of all time. In 2025, he returned to the stage for a highly anticipated tour, delighting fans with his timeless voice and unforgettable performances.
OSA International, Inc. is playing a vital role in this tour, providing a comprehensive package of lighting, rigging, audio, and video technology to elevate the concert experience for nationwide audiences. Known for delivering world-class production services, OSA International supports Bocelli’s performances with seamless audiovisual integration that matches the elegance and emotion of his music. The tour, which captivated audiences during its spring run, is now expanding to include additional dates in cities such as Knoxville, Tampa, Austin, Denver, and more.
As the tour enters new markets, OSA International’s expert crew and cutting-edge equipment ensure each venue is transformed into a world-class space tailored to Bocelli’s vision. For the tour’s video displays, OSA International selected AbsenLive’s Saturn Series P2.6 LED (SA2.6) panels.
“It’s a great product from a great company, and we have a strong partnership with Absen,” said Bobby Allen, executive vice president of entertainment for OSA International. “Like most of our shows, we rely heavily on close-up camera shots of the artist. It’s only fair for the audience to see what everyone else sees.”
The SA2.6 was chosen for its image quality and flexibility, making it ideal for live concert touring and corporate events. Its reliable performance and adaptability support OSA International’s commitment to maintaining high production standards across multiple stops.
“We like the new Absen Saturn Series because it offers excellent color performance,” said Mark McIntosh, LED engineer for the tour. “For this project, we’re using Brompton processing with the Saturn panels, which gives us a high level of control over color. It allows us to match what the cameras capture with what the audience sees, ensuring system-wide consistency.”
“We’ve enjoyed having the 2.6mm on tour. It’s the highest-resolution product we’ve ever toured with. The content on the walls looks more like a high-quality photograph than something displayed on an LED wall.”
Designed for fast-paced live events, the AbsenLive Saturn Series delivers exceptional visual performance and effortless setup. With brightness up to 1500 nits, 16-bit grayscale, and a 7680Hz refresh rate, it ensures vibrant visuals in any lighting condition.
“One of the key advantages of the Saturn product on this tour is that it’s stackable,” said Rob Seager, video crew chief for OSA International. “Being able to stack the panels in the truck gives us significantly more space. With seven different LED walls on this tour—not including spares—that’s a major advantage.”
Each 500x1000mm panel weighs just 20.94 lbs, offering quick transport, setup, and on-the-fly adjustments. The SA Series features a fast-locking system and magnetic module design for seamless screen alignment and minimal downtime.
Built for versatility, the Saturn Series supports flat and curved (-2.5° to +2.5°) configurations and offers multiple mounting options—hanging up to 32.8 feet, stacking up to 16.4 feet, and supporting modular setups with a range of bar sizes. Whether for concerts, festivals, corporate events, or immersive activations, the SA Series adapts to any environment.
The integration of AbsenLive’s SA Series has elevated the visual storytelling of each performance, allowing Bocelli’s voice to be accompanied by stunning visuals. From enhanced image quality to efficient logistics, the SA Series has proven to be the ideal choice for OSA International. Together, Bocelli’s extraordinary talent and OSA International’s production expertise create an unforgettable concert experience.
