The Band was founded together with Geir Jenssen. He left after the second album in 1990 and pursued a solo career in ambient music as Biosphere.
During the years from 1985 to present (2006) Bel Canto have been taking breaks as Anneli Drecker has pursued a solo career and done concerts with other bands and artists (including touring with A-Ha), as well as playing in films and theatre plays. Nils Johansen, on the other hand, has composed music for film and television as well as working and performing with his other band, Vajas.
21 Years after the band was founded they are still active. In the fall of 2006 they continued to do concerts, primarily in Norway.
In 2007 Bel Canto will continue to work together, both by writing new material and by doing more gigs. At the same time both Anneli Drecker and Nils Johansen will also work on other projects. Latest update by 2022 is that Bel Canto are currently working on their next album.

Bel Canto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When there's lack of dignity
Politeness
Has to join simplicity
No caution
Without pure sincerety
Compliance
Has to join with bravery
No mildness
Without some solidity
No power
Without simple honesty
No courage
Without justice joined within
Good nature
And discretion makes a team
No mildness
Without some solidity
No power
Without simple honesty
No courage
Without justice joined within
Good nature
And discretion makes a team
Makes a team
The lyrics to Bel Canto's song Look 3 reflect the values and qualities that one should possess in order to have a meaningful and fulfilling life. The opening lines, "No kindness when there's lack of dignity" suggest that kindness should always be present but especially when there is a lack of dignity. The next line, "Politeness has to join simplicity" indicates that being polite is important, but it should not come at the expense of being genuine and keeping things simple.
The following lines, "No caution without pure sincerity, compliance has to with bravery" suggest that caution is not enough without pure sincerity and that compliance must be joined with bravery. This conveys the message that being cautious is important, but it's equally important to be sincere and brave in order to truly make a difference.
The repetition of "no mildness without some solidity, no power without simple honesty, no courage without justice joined within" reinforces the idea that these virtues are essential for a successful and meaningful life. Finally, the last line "good nature and discretion makes a team" implies that having a good nature and being discreet complement each other and together make a strong team. Overall, the song encourages its listeners to cultivate these virtues in order to lead a fulfilling and victorious life.
