Vocal Group
Il Volo (“The Flight”) is an Italian pop trio, consisting of singers: baritone Gianluca Ginoble, and two tenors, Piero Barone and Ignazio Boschetto. They describe their music as “popera.” Having won the Sanremo Music Festival 2015, they represented Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 in Vienna, Austria. They reached third place, but managed to secure a solid first place victory in the tele-voting.
I recently saw this amazing vocal trio in concert; not only do these beautiful voices provide melodious melted, decadent chocolate for your ears, their on-stage banter and interactions also tickled both of my funny bones. I realize when they sing in Italian I do not understand a single word, but when they sing, the music simply becomes about their pure talent, their voices' power; and when they sing in flawless English, it is truly a transcendent experience.
