Sorry I've not been around - been busy with Andrea Faustini releasing his first single!
Anyway, I have amazing news - I am going to Verona to see Il Volo live - I booked it before I read that some of you guys might be going too? I am so excited - it is in an ancient Roman amphitheater, outside, with those voices.... Incredible

Incredible ![]() ![]() I have been to Verona but passed through it more than anything so saw very little of it... That amphitheatre/arena is Roman and over 2000 years old, the bridge that crosses the river is also Roman and over 2000 years old, they knew how to build stuff to last in them days ![]() Found this video which tells you a bit about Verona. Another one here. And this one covers Northern Italy: Bologna, Verona and Lake Garda which are all reasonably close by. I'm really liking Andrea Faustini's single and his album should be really good ![]() For those that don't know, Andrea Faustini was a contestant in the recent UK x factor. He also competed as a 13 year old in the same Italian TV song contest as Il Volo except he competed the year before. On that show he also duetted with Gianluca Ginoble and Ignazio Boschetto when he was invited back as a special guest.

Italy is a beautiful country but is unfortunately run by idiots and lots of red tape which is a shame. Oh and nice filofax

Hi guys!
I'm from Sweden and fell in love Il Volo at Eurovision and since then I have been an Ilvolover. The interesting thing is that although these guys mostly sing in italian, they have great personalities which makes it even more fun to follow them. Especially Ignazio, who is my favorite in the group. Lately, he has become more of a role model for me due to this aviation enthusiasm and the transformation he has been through. On the other hand, it's sometimes sad that they after so many years in USA are not really good at speaking english as well as using it on social media. Well, it will hopefully get better in time. But from now on I'm delighted that I can follow their journey with you guys

Then of course there's his voice, they all have excellent voices but for me Ignazio's voice has something extra, clarity, range, passion and emotion. ![]() He's the joker, the fun in the group, all 3 are very down to earth but there is that something more with Ignazio

I totally agree. His voice simply adds a dimension to their vocals. As far as I'm concerned isn't he assigned most of the money notes due to his vocal range?
![]() ![]() Piero's voice is very good but operatic which is not really to my taste, Gianluca's voice is velvety smooth and vocally he's exceptional, however, both I feel are suited to certain types of songs whereas Ignazio could probably sing across quite a few genres. His voice is excellent, feels modern and he delivers it with passion and emotion. That said all 3 blend together really well and are perfectly suited to different parts of different songs and it just works.

Hey Nurdin
guess you know of my ultimate idol....Marie Serneholt? ![]() Ignazio is impressive for the simple reason that we have seen him change from a boy into a man. His voice is so impressive and so *swooooooon* in his looks. Absolute Italian Stallion

Doesn't she do modeling as well? |

Of course, a beautiful woman who I think was together with Måns Zelmer for a while. She was also a member of A-teens, which I heard a lot about when I was younger.

This RAI website gives the TV Schedule for all the RAI channels. ![]() It's in Italian but looks pretty straight forward to navigate... Scroll down a little and you have a window with the channels and dates you select which will present you with the schedule .

Il Volo in China, funny clip of them getting a Chinese girl to speak Sicilian and to say grazie pronouncing the letter "R" which they can't pronounce.

It's a 2014 Christmas concert at the Italian senate house (parliament?) in front of Italian politicians. It may have been in aid of something but not sure... I think it's something to do with raising aid for children/disabled children... It runs for just over an hour, there may be 2 or 3 songs you haven't heard them perform before like "Ave Maria" and "O Holy Night", whatever the reason for the concert, it looked pretty official, so they (Il Volo) performed very professionally.
