As I had already announced, the TIM MUSIC AWARDS took place live on September 13th in the Verona Arena.
The date of the event was given only recently and Il Volo was invited to collect a prize, but as it was the possible days of Ignazio’s wedding, it was thought that Il Volo would give up, and instead, despite the 12th being the wedding day civil of Ignazio and Michelle, Il Volo participated, even opened the event in the Arena, which was then broadcast on RAI 1.
Their arrival in Verona🤩🤩🤩

Greetings from Piero, Ignazio and Gianluca and a short video of the interview with Radio Italia, where they talk about their tour in Japan.
Their rehearsals
And here they are, splendid and always excellent, they opened the television program which began directly with them on stage, they performed a medley composed of short moments of CAPOLAVORO, FRAMMENTI DELL’UNIVERSO and WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER, sensational!!!
The only ones who performed with a real orchestra behind them.
Dressed in a casual-elegant way, Piero, Gianluca and the new groom Ignazio gave a great performance.
At the end of the performance they were joined by the two presenters, Carlo Conti and Vanessa Incontrada who, after the usual greetings and questions, congratulated our young men.
Ignazio admits that it is the first event he has attended as a married man.
Ultimately they send a message of encouragement to young people to always pursue their dreams.

Some nice photos!
These days right after Ignazio’s wedding party, the weather in Italy was really bad, a lot of rain came for several days and there were also floods.
One of the first days of this weather instability brought a discharge of lightning to Abruzzo and one of these struck the bell tower of Montepagano, 😩 Gianluca’s town, causing damage, and this is why Gianluca made an appeal to the authorities responsible for the restoration work to begin soon.😍
Here’s the video, turn on the subtitles.
And now a nice interview in English from a Polish program.
In September this beautiful song was published, a truly unique duet, of great sweetness and with a great purpose, that of research against cancer.
She is the very sweet and talented Olivia Newton-John, who passed away two years ago. 🙏
A duet with Il Volo wasn’t in the cards, but with technology it could be done.
Let’s listen to this sweet song presented by her friend Jim Brickman.
MY DREAM
And also very sweet are the voices of Gianluca Ignazio and Piero who did not prevail but remained delicate, enhancing Olivia’s beautiful voice even more.
I bet you will struggle to recognize Piero’s non-lyrical voice.
Congratulations, it’s a beautiful and sweet duet. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
PEOPLE magazine talked about the song and its purpose.

Once again we must bow to your projects like this splendid duet with humanitarian purposes, you are a force!
Even though your presence at the Tim Music Awards was quick, you were impeccable, bringing your skill and professionalism to people, because despite your personal commitments you did not miss the event.
But this too is archived and the European tour is getting closer and closer: first date LONDON!!!
Good luck!!

This post was ready but since the video of Michelle’s promises was published and I promised to give you the translation immediately, I added it here at the bottom. Let me start by saying that Michelle speaks part of the speech in Spanish and I have read the automatic translation, but believe me it doesn’t make much sense, I don’t know Spanish, but as it is quite similar to Italian I try to give you a possible translation, so forgive me for any words not understood.
These words from Michelle are also very beautiful and with a lot of love. ❤️❤️
OFFICIANT= Recognize that love is about understanding, mutual respect and commitment.
Ignazio, do you want to receive Michelle as your bride, live together in union and love and support her, comfort her, respect her, in sickness and in health, in good days and in difficult ones, from today and for the rest of your life.
IGNAZIO= Yes I want it.
OFFICIANT= Michelle, do you want to receive Ignazio as your husband, live together in union and love, to support him and comfort him and respect him in sickness and in health, in good days and in difficult ones, from today and for the rest of your life?
MICHELLE= Yes I want it!
IGNAZIO= Thank goodness!
OFFICIANT= Now Ignazio and Michelle will express their personal promises, the fruit of their love and dedication. Michelle, I’ll turn the floor over to you.
MICHELLE= (she begins the speech in Spanish, I translate the first part as far as I understand, I hope it is correct).
My love, the moment I’ve been waiting for has come, now I can tell you. You don’t know the happiness and pride I have for you who are the love of my life. From the first time I saw you I had no doubt that you were the perfect man that you are and I have no doubt that you will be a good husband and dad. I can’t wait for my love to turn you into a dad. With you I learned that love exists, that it exists and it is so beautiful and exciting every day of life to fall more and more in love, to grow together caring about every detail. It’s a love that I could never imagine but it exists and I want to live it all my life.
(Now she continues in Italian)
I wanted to say thank you to my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law, from the first day they made me feel at home and I feel very lucky that you are my family and I am sure that my father-in-law is happy for us and will always protect us from above. (Ignazio wipes away a tear)
My prince, I promise you my faithfulness and loyalty, I promise to love you and make you feel loved every day of my life, that I will take care of you and that I will do my best as a wife, hopefully soon as a mother and for our families. I will always be close to you, my love, and I promise you that there will not be a day in which you will miss a kiss from me. I love you with all of myself, love of my life. (She continues again in Spanish) I love you beyond words, beyond the physical, beyond time and space, I simply love you, above everything in this world!
