His first major crossover hit was his 1983 duet with Roberta Flack, &#8220;Tonight, I Celebrate My Love.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bryson&#8217;s biggest hits came in the 1990s when he earned two Grammys for two Disney duets, &#8220;Beauty and the Beast&#8221; with Celine Dion, and &#8220;A Whole New World&#8221; with Regina Belle from Disney&#8217;s &#8220;Aladdin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nominated for eight
