The original group first met while rehearsing and performing at different opera venues globally. The band originates in the United Kingdom and was formed in 2002. The original five members included Tsakane and David, but were also Nick Garrett (bass-baritone), Geoff Sewell (tenor), and Jo Appleby (soprano). Nick left the band in 2005 shortly after the release of their album Defined for unexplained reasons. Geoff left in February 2006 right after his daughter was diagnosed with ASD (autism spectrum disorder) and was replaced with Bruno. Jo Appleby was replaced by Lucy when she left in late 2006 to pursue a solo career.
Amici was then signed with Arista Records and came out with their first album in 2004, The Opera Band. The album quickly reached #74 in the Billboard 200 album charts and top 50 of the ARIA Australian album charts. It reached #2 on the Billboard Classical Crossover and Heatseeker charts, #1 on the ARIA Australian Classical album chart, and it also became top 5 on the UK Classical charts. In addition, it received a nomination for 'Album of the Year' at the Classical Brit Awards in 2004, where they also performed.
The latest album from Amici is Defined and was released in 2005. This album has reached top 5 of the Australian album charts.

Whisper of Angels
Amici Forever Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before the sun that woke the earth
And I was yours before rain kissed the ground
Before the first dawn's sound was heard
I'll be the whisper of angels
And I'll be the frost on your glass
And I'll be the shadows at twilight
I'm the rush-the fire in your veins
Across the desert plains I ride
I'm the ache the sound that midnight makes
A streak of star across the sky
I'll be the whisper of angels
And I'll be the frost on your glass
And I'll be the shadows at twilight
I'll be your first your last
The lyrics to Amici Forever's "Whisper of Angels" are about an everlasting love that existed before the beginning of time. The singer is expressing their deep connection to their partner by saying that they were "yours" before anything else in the universe existed. The imagery used in the lyrics is very ethereal and otherworldly. The singer compares themselves to the "whisper of angels," something that is both beautiful and mysterious. They also mention being the "frost on your glass," which creates a vivid picture of delicacy and fragility.
Overall, the lyrics suggest that the love between the singer and their partner is timeless and eternal. They will always be there, whether in the form of a shadow at twilight or a streak of stars across the sky. This enduring love is not constrained by time or space and is something that will never disappear. The song is very romantic and emotionally charged and connects with the listener on a deep level.

I was yours before the first morn broke
I belonged to you even before the first morning of creation.
Before the sun that woke the earth
Even before the sun rose and illuminated the earth.
And I was yours before rain kissed the ground
My devotion towards you started even before the rain first fell on the earth.
Before the first dawn's sound was heard
My allegiance towards you existed even before the first sound of dawn was ever heard.
I'll be the whisper of angels
I'll be the voice of the divine and the messengers of heaven.
And I'll be the frost on your glass
I'll be the chill that meets your windowpane on a cold morning.
And I'll be the shadows at twilight
I'll be the darkness slowly creeping in as the sunsets.
I'll be your first your last
I'll be with you from the beginning till the end, from the start till the last breath of your life.
I'm the rush-the fire in your veins
I'm the passion that fuels your spirit and ignites your soul.
Across the desert plains I ride
Across the barren wasteland, I journey with you.
I'm the ache the sound that midnight makes
I'm the feeling of longing and the eerie sound that seeps in during the midnight hours.
A streak of star across the sky
A fleeting moment of brilliance in the vast expanse of the night sky.

And I'll be the shadows at twilight
I'll be your first your last
I'm the rush-the fire in your veins
Across the desert plains I ride
I'm the ache the sound that midnight makes
A streak of star across the sky
I'll be the whisper of angels
And I'll be the frost on your glass
And I'll be the shadows at twilight
I'll be your first your last
