Ignazio Boschetto speaks about the soaring success of Il Volo


When Italian trio Il Volo takes the stage, prepare to be swept away by the powerful passion only Italian opera can bring. Ignazio Boschetto, 18, Piero Barone, 20, and Gianluca Ginoble, 18, launched Il Volo in 2009. The group’s name, which means “the flight” has rocketed to global fame with their hit rendition of “O Sole Mio.”
In 2011, they appeared on HBO’s “Entourage” and the following year, performed with Barbra Streisand. Boschetto phoned us from Montreal Sept. 9 where Il Volo performed for 5,000 people the previous night. Currently touring in America promoting new albums We Are Love and Mas Que Amor, the vibrant young singer is definitely living la dolce vita these days.
“I think each moment of our career has been so special and important for us,” Boschetto said of his group's international superstardom. “For us, it’s a dream. Every single part of our day is like dreaming and we didn’t expect any of this. Being here after three years, everything has happened so fast. It’s really all a dream come true.”

Review Il Volo at the Saroyan Theatre


You don’t have to search long and far on the Internet for times in which fans of Il Volo — the pop-opera singing trio that enthused a packed Saroyan Theatre Friday with a peppy, crowd-pleasing performance — rebuke the local music critic for not “getting it.” You know the online comment drill when it comes to transgressing reviewer: draw, quarter, eviscerate, turn into Italian meatballs, etc. The chief fan complaint: Critics treat Il Volo like it’s opera, and it isn’t. Don’t judge a group for what it isn’t trying to be.
([Note] Team Il Volo is not associated with this review)
And you know what? I’ll buy it. Il Volo isn’t opera. The group sings lots of songs in Italian, yes, and even some opera classics, but in no way, shape or form is this meant to represent the highly trained, specialized style that allows mere mortals to boom over full orchestras and fill 2,000-seat halls unamplified. Il Volo is pop-opera, and while its repertoire might lean toward the operatic — especially to American ears — the mentality is heavily pop, from the format (three adorable young guys wooing the audience) to the delivery (five musicians, heavily amplified and synthesized).

Il Volo brings hit pop-opera to Comerica Theatre


The Italian lads who comprise pop-opera trio Il Volo are definitely men now: Youngest member Gianluca Ginoble turned 18 this year. But the guys show no signs of shaking up their family-friendly, PBS-ready image anytime soon.
“When we have free time, we enjoy our Playstations,” says Ginoble, caught at a Vancouver hotel before the launch of a North American tour. “We have fun, like all teenagers and people 18, 19 and 20.”
The group still travels with parents in tow. Baritone Ginoble and tenor Ignazio Boschetto are accompanied by their moms; second tenor Piero Barone brings his father. The entourage journeys around the globe, with the group boasting a strong following that extends through Latin America, Australia, Asia, Europe and North America.
“Everything is going good,” says Ginoble, who speaks Italian, Spanish and charmingly accented English. “We hope to continue in this way. This is our third tour of the United States, and we will sing at the best venues, like Radio City Music Hall. This is a dream come true to do this live and in such a short time.”
The three singers first performed together on Italian TV in 2009 during a talent show, and stayed together once their run on the series ended. A 2011 debut album reached the Top 10 in the States; a second studio album, “We Are Love,” appeared late last year. The group also issues releases aimed at the Spanish-speaking market; this year’s “Mas Que Amor” topped the Latin pop-album charts in the States.

Il Volo continues to reap success


When they joined their voices in 2009, they never thought to reach success today after winning combination of vocal timbres to sing traditional songs in the style of pop song lyrics.
And is that just three years after released their debut album, Il Volo has become a phenomenon: his first album reached tenth place in the Billboard Top 200 chart and to date has sold over a million copies worldwide.
Last year, the Italian trio-consisting of Piero Barone (20), Ignazio Boschetto (18) and Gianluca Ginoble (18) - presented their second study, entitled We Are Love (More Than Love) -, which has also been very successful and led to sing with Eros Ramazzotti, Placido Domingo, Andrea Bocelli and Belinda.
To give a taste of the cover included in their latest material, the Three Tenors (as they are also known), will be presented on Wednesday at the Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal Studios, site that will soon be demolished to make way for the new attractions wizard Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood.
"I can not wait to be in Los Angeles," said La Opinion enthusiastic voice from Sicily, Italy, Ignazio Boschetto. "Personally, Los Angeles, is one of my favorite cities. I like to sing there, the audience's very warm."

5 awesome reasons to see Il Volo


1. They’re taking off.
Il Volo, which translates to “the flight” in English, chose its name based on the boys’ desire to spread their wings. And now that the band has taken off from Italian soil, Il Volo has landed full force in America. After the international release of its first, self-titled album, "Il Volo" debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Album chart.
2. They’re ‘Idol’ status.
Almost immediately after dropping their first album internationally, the guys headed to the U.S. for a performance during the final three results show on American Idol’s Season 10. The group performed a cover of “O sole mio,” which translates to “my sunshine.” The song is an 1800s Neapolitan song, which Il Volo released as a single.
3. They’re do-gooders.
Post-earthquake, the trio participated in the charity single, “We Are the World 25 for Haiti.” The song, a remake of “We Are The World” by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, debuted at the 2010 Winter Olympics opening ceremony, and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Il Volo also participated in the President’s Star Charity show in Singapore and performed “O sole mio” to help raise funds for the handicapped.

As one-third of the dashing young Italian pop-opera trio Il Volo,  Piero Barone has seen his share of unusual clothing items thrown his way onstage. But he expects South Florida fans to be more modest Wednesday night, being such a chilly winter evening and all.
“Yes, we would like to see a lot of warm clothes, and the ugliest sweaters!” Barone says with a laugh, describing the trio’s imminent Christmas concert. Yes, Christmas.
Il Volo will perform two shows this week at the Fillmore Miami Beach, each being recorded for an upcoming special on PBS,  no stranger to Il Volo, with repeated broadcasts of their 2012 debut special, “Il Volo Takes Flight.”

Il Volo: "We mixed pop with opera"


The Italian group Il Volo, which in Spanish means "The Flight" is a lyrical pop singing trio. It is composed of Piero Barone, born in Sicily, Ignazio Boschetto, from Bologna, and Gianluca Ginoble, from the land of Abruzzo. The three teenagers singing Italian classics, pop songs in Spanish, English, French and Italian. Publinews talked to Boschetto about how they met, their favorite duets and musical tastes.
 
How did you meet?
We met two years ago during the talent show "ti lascio una canzone", each singing solo . There were 39 contestants. Gradually we were talking and we are now in this project that excites us.

Why you decided to record the song "Constantemente Mia" with Belinda?
We wanted to have a partnership with an American artist. We are looking for several months until we fond Belinda. We liked her style. We mixed opera with pop.

How does it feel to have songs in duet with singers Placido Domingo and Eros Ramazzotti?
Incredible. Two stars of our country. Placido Domingo is the best known and beloved singer in the opera genre. With it we have the theme "Il Canto". And I hear Ramazzotti since I was child . It is an honor to sing a duet with him, the song "Così".

You also sing rock songs in English.
Yes most famous versions are the bands Aerosmith and U2.

Do you like rock?
Yes is what I hear most. My favorite artists are Elvis Presley, Stevie Wonder and AC / DC.

Many fans are wondering where Il Volo buy your clothes.
Really? (laughs). My favorite clothes are T-shirts and jeans. The Armani brand I love, but in the end what I really like is to feel comfortable.
