RTL102.5 AND RADIO ZETA INTERVIEW by Daniela

I can’t believe it!!!
The last concert in Canada was on April 5th and then Piero, Gianluca and Ignazio went back home to Italy for a well-deserved rest, but on April 8th they were already on the radio for an interview, incredible!
The interview was with Radio RTL102.5 for the program THE FLIGHT (that’s the real name of the program, nothing more appropriate), and they were interviewed by Alessandra Zacchino who is commonly called ZAC for short.
They were also live on the music channel, so I propose the video and we can also see our boys.
I only translated the first part of the interview, because then I saw a video already with well-made subtitles translated into English and then from there continue on the video and thank Donalee Dragna for doing this great job, thanks Donalee!!

INTERVIEW

ZAC= This Tuesday afternoon the guys from: Il Volo joined us, each in their own location.
GIANLUCA= Hello everyone.
IGNAZIO= Hello.
PIERO= Hello, Hello.
ZAC= Piero, Ignazio Gianluca, welcome, welcome back.
So, tell us a little, how are you? First of all, you look good.
PIERO= What do you want to know?
ZAC= So, I want to know… first of all, how many tours have you done in America?
PIERO= Nine
ZAC= Nine? So in sixteen years
GIANLUCA= Yes, almost sixteen years, just think that on April 25, 2025, so soon, we will celebrate sixteen years of career.
ZAC= How wonderful, and you have had a ton of sold-outs….
IGNAZIO= How wonderful for you who see it from the outside, but sixteen years together is tough!!
ZAC= But I meant how wonderful the tour is, then if we want to get into specifics, Ignazio wants to take advantage….
IGNAZIO= We put up with each other every day, but….
ZAC= But this relationship in the end, on stage you guys do extraordinary numbers, I’m not saying this because I like you, but with the cards in hand!
PIERO= Look, this was a magnificent and exciting tour, we didn’t expect it… because we know the United States well, we’ve been going there to perform concerts for many years, but this year we experienced it differently, there was a different awareness.
It was exciting because seeing year after year, the number of audience capacities always increasing, the affection always the same and you conquer new generations, this gives you energy for the future and everything there is to do from now on.
ZAC= Yes, it’s true, because in addition to you having grown over these fifteen and a half years, your audience has also grown, which has always been very varied, because there were adults, but also kids and many of these kids then became adults and the new very young people arrived.
GIANLUCA= Yes, many girls have become mothers and many mothers have become grandmothers.
IGNAZIO= Let’s say that those who worked then, are now retired.
PIERO= And many grandmothers are no longer here.
GIANLUCA= No, come on. Unfortunately, look, this is a black humor that is contemplated but maybe not at this time.
ZAC= To sum up, it was an American tour that took you both to the United States and Canada, the last date was in Ontario, the Canadian side of Niagara Falls and it was a success, but we’ll be back in Italy soon, okay?
Meanwhile: Grande Amore , Il Volo. (video resumes after the song)
Il Volo, Grande Amore on RTL 102.5 it’s 3.16 pm and the guys are connected with us after a very successful tour, but as I was saying this is only a part of what they have to do, because then there will be a European tour, in short they will continue to tour, but in between there are three very important dates, three unmissable events, May 8, 10 and 11, explain to me for a moment what we are talking about for these three dates.
PIERO= Do you know our program TUTTI PER UNO?
ZAC= Of course not?
PIERO= This year we will be at the third edition on Canale 5 and every year, in the past episodes, individually we show what we are, beyond our favorite musical genre perhaps where we recognize ourselves most, and in this program we have so many guests.
(from here continue on the video)
Really a nice interview and so many guests, their names are very popular here in Italy, we will have fun.
Then Il Volo was also interviewed in radiovision by Radio Zeta which for the program COLLETTIVO ZETA that I translate for you.
MAN= We should have them on zoom: Il Volo!! Hi guys.
GIANLUCA= Hi how are you?
PIERO= Hi, today you have VOLO without the article. (meaning that Ignazio is missing)
GIANLUCA= One is missing.
MAN= We are trying to get Ignazio back but Piero and Gianluca are here so let’s start first of all from … How are you and where are you? Piero…
PIERO= We arrived yesterday evening from the United States, we did this 6-week tour, it was a nice tour of 20 concerts.
You know we often go to America to do concerts, but this year it was different, it was a tour perhaps…let me say…more exciting, we experienced it with more awareness, then it is always a pleasure to go there, to sing, but then coming back is always nice.
Now we are at home, not on vacation, because we are working on the next project that we will tell you about shortly, we have five days to rest and then we are ready to do everything.
MAN= Gianluca, are you confirming or reversing what Piero said?
GIANLUCA= Mamma mia, Piero has said it all by now, but I expected Giulia to be there. (Giulia Salemi presenter of Radio Zeta and friend – laughter) Sorry, no offense to you.
MAN= We can call her and put her in touch with us. She works from 11:00 to 13:00.
Anyway, Giulia or not Giulia, I wanted to ask you, do you feel the jet lag? I mean, are you standing up by a miracle now or are you used to it by now.
GIANLUCA= Yesterday at 05:00 I opened my eyes wide, well now this is part of the game, but yes, there is always a bit of jet lag, but in the end as Piero said, we do what we like and that’s the main thing, now we’ll lose a few days.
MAN = We’ll soon talk about the unmissable events on May 8, 10 and 11 in Mantua, but I wanted to ask Gianluca, why did I see a Joker behind you, is it possible?
GIANLUCA= Yes, here it is, it’s not mine, because I’m at home in the studio of the producer, that is Michael Tenisci who is also co-author of Capolavoro, because we are preparing in the studio next door the songs to perform in TUTTI PER UNO precisely.
MAN= Oh how cool!
GIANLUCA= But I’m a fan of Joker, I’m a fan of the Joker movie and of all the meaning. precisely of the movie.
MAN= But also of the second one? Or the second one, no?
GIANLUCA= The second one is the best movie in history (laughter).
MAN= Instead to understand the difference (between Piero and Gianluca), Gianluca has a Joker behind him even if it’s not his, instead Piero I think I saw the Sanremo award, did I see Piero wrong behind you?
PIERO= First of all I have a house all my own, paid for (laughter).
MAN= Well done Piero nice message.
PIERO= Yes that is the Sanremo award, yes there is the notice board. (behind him)
GIANLUCA= Why did you win Sanremo? (laughter)
PIERO= Yes it is on the notice board, in fact I’ll even show it to you lit up, look….
MAN= Go, go, it lights up too, come on light up the Sanremo award because yes, you won Sanremo Gianluca! This thing happened to you too.
PIERO= Look how I lit up the Sanremo award for you.
MAN= Beautiful, beautiful! For those who aren’t following us on radiovision, there’s a light that illuminates only and exclusively that area of the house…..beautiful.
GIANLUCA= Guys, this year is the tenth anniversary of GRANDE AMORE, so….
MAN= Oh, and so you know what? We’ll listen to it so we can celebrate this tenth anniversary and then we’ll talk about the only three dates here in Italy: GRANDE AMORE Il Volo here on Radio Zeta, this is your Collettivo Zeta.
(the song that you can’t hear in the video starts)
MAN= We also saw the video, we’re at 266 digital terrestrial on Radio Zeta in the Collective, I’d like to ask Piero, but the Spider Man moment, who came to mind in this video of Grande Amore?
PIERO= For the SPIDERMAN moment (Gianluca’s scene), in my opinion the director was under strange effects…..(laughter) he wrote the session of Grande Amore, then his colleague arrived who was worse and did BACK TO THE FUTURE (Piero’s scene) and then the third, we had changed agent and he had Ignazio do the GHOST stuff.
MAN= Beautiful guys!
PIERO= But in the end that video was really liked, you saw!
MAN= Okay, they are three important pieces for three different generations, you unite all the audiences of the world practically like this.
PIERO= Think that I did that scene (of Back to the Future) without having seen the original film.
MAN= Incredible. But did you see it or not?
GIANLUCA= In fact it’s incredible, without inspiration you moved me with your interpretation. (laughter)
PIERO= But I’m a born actor, I sing for passion, but my true vocation is precisely acting. (he jokes)
GIANLUCA= But I have to tell you that it’s nice to see, or rather to hear on Radio Zeta Grande Amore by Il Volo after Lei by Marracash (an Italian rapper very popular among young people), it’s not bad!
MAN= It’s true!!
GIANLUCA= You are truly an eclectic radio.
MAN= Did you see? You’re right. Who knows, maybe he’s giving us some spoilers about something that will come with Marracash, like Il Volo feat Marracash, it wouldn’t be bad….
PIERO= We’ll have Giannli Morandi (a completely different singer from Marracash)
MAN= So be careful, it seems to me…..let’s get things in order Piero, we have to repeat May 8, 10, 11 the only dates in Italy, Palazzo Te in Mantua, TUTTI PER UNO VIAGGIO NEL TEMPO Il Volo, three unmissable live shows, but we would like to understand, besides you three who are wonderful and wonderful Piero, will there be anyone else?
PIERO= It seems a bit like a joke to me, I feel slightly relieved. (he is being ironic)
GIANLUCA= No, no, he is a big fan, he always comes to all the concerts.
MAN= Besides, I have to ask, okay, later….
GIANLUCA= Tickets for mom, for grandma…..
MAN=……and for the girlfriend.
But jokes aside, there will be some surprises guys, whoever wants to answer, answer.
PIERO= Let’s say we divide the names, the two of us,
MAN= Go.
PIERO= I’ll give you the first 10, then: Gianni Morandi, I know them all by heart (but he shows his cell phone where he reads from), Fiorella Mannoia, Arisa, Mario Biondi with Alessandro Quarta…
GIANLUCA= A little faster Piero, the radio times are for 2…
PIERO= Malika Ayane, Noemi, Clara and Antonello Venditti.
GIANLUCA= Then there will be Gaia, Massimo Ranieri, Brunori Saa, Marco Masini, The Kolors, Gigi D’Alessio, Alessandra Amoroso, Peppe Fiorello, Giorgio Panariello and other confirmations are arriving, so there will be many guests and for those who do not know the program it is the third television edition, we moved from the Verona Arena to Palazzo Te in Mantua to also show the beauties of Italy, because in any case we are lucky enough to have wonderful places. It is a television program where we will also sing individually, to summarize, each one shows their own personality outside of the trio because we have three completely different entities.
MAN= And what’s yours, for example, Gianlu?
GIANLUCA= I….maybe I don’t sing. (he jokes – laughter)
And it doesn’t end here, just today, April 10, Andrea Bocelli published this beautiful visit to the ABF GlobaLab in San Firenze.
A truly special visit: a celebrated trio of colleagues and friends whose journey is a shining example of talent, passion, dedication, and achievement. Il Volo toured the new ABF GlobaLab spaces at “San Firenze.”
The three remarkable artists—cherished by audiences across the globe—honored us with their presence and delighted the entire foundation team with their unexpected visit.
It was profoundly moving to witness, alongside them, the profound alignment of values that inspires Gianluca, Piero, and Ignazio (the three wings of harmony who have carried Il Volo to the world’s most prestigious stages for over sixteen years), and the driving force behind ABF: a vibrant, dynamic laboratory of ideas, and GlobaLab—a crossroads of knowledge and connection.
A space of limitless possibilities—open to youth, professionals, and the wider community—where learning comes alive through hands-on experience, meaningful encounters, education, and innovation.
Andrea Bocelli
And now, finally, watch this video, I think it’s fan-made, but it’s well done and it goes over all the various moments of Il Volo’s career.

I can say……but poor guys, they didn’t even have time to rest and immediately they had these interviews and what a beautiful visit to ABF Foundation!
Nice and kind and funny as always, they promoted the three concerts in Mantua by listing some guests with whom we will hear them sing. I know that perhaps for you the singers listed may be big question marks, but know that they are very famous artists in Italy, and then we will see the violinist Alessandro Quarta again.
Mantua, Palazzo Tem will be another beautiful event, I can’t wait to see them again!
But here I am, I thought I had told you everything and here comes the most beautiful, sweetest news, the one we were all waiting to hear.
Yes, it’s true, Ignazio and Michelle are becoming parents, but let’s read Michelle’s sweet words for the announcement.
My love, you don’t know how much we wanted you. We still can’t believe that we will become parents. We thought that we were already lucky to find ourselves the two of us in life, but once again she surprised us, giving us another shade of pure happiness. In a few months you will arrive and we can’t wait to see you, to raise you, to introduce you to the world and to know the wonderful privilege of being a dad and a mom. In our center of the world now there is you BIANCA. ❤️
What wonderful news, a great dream come true, congratulations dear Ignazio and Michelle, a beautiful princess is on the way!! ❤️❤️❤️
There is so much love in the air, so much that we will talk about in the days to come.
See you soon: Daniela 🤗

  3. Hi Daniela
    Oh, what wonderful news about the baby. This little girl is going to be the luckiest baby to be raised by these two wonderful people like Ignazio and Michele, and the most beautiful one.
    Hugs from Hawaii🥰

    1. Dear Jill, the news of Bianca’s arrival is really great, we were all waiting to hear the good news.
      I hope everything is going well for you in Hawaii, I send you a big hug from Italy!!

  4. Daniela, so much to take in! You have shared everything possible with us. Thank you, especially, for the pictures of Ignazio and Michelle sharing the beautiful news of Bianca. I cannot wait until you are sharing the birth news! ❤️

    1. Ginny, I’m always looking for lots of news, photos and videos, I know that even if there are so many, you never have enough of knowing and reading things about our beloved boys and of course the news of Bianca’s arrival was the best!

  5. Thanks, many times over for keeping us informed. For translating for those of us, who would miss much by not understanding Italian. Nice to review what they have accomplished over these sixteen years. More ahead for them. New Beginnings. Great News for Michelle and Ignazio. Prayers for all them, their health and well being.

    1. Thanks for the compliments Barb, I know you enjoy my translations so much, that’s why I always want to provide them to you.
      Stay with us, we will follow, where possible without invading privacy, the event related to Bianca!

  6. Thank you for the wonderful news for Ignazio and Michelle for a beautiful baby girl Bianca . I know they are are both over the moon and the families too of them and everyone involved with Il volo and uncles Piero and Gianluca. The article is fantastic with the photos and videos of the guys and of course Ignazio and Michelle. Beautiful interview of the guys and I hope I get to see their concerts in may on tv. I’m in USA, will I see it?
    Good luck for upcoming concerts in 2025 and baby Bianca. Much success to everyone in 2025 !
    Linda – Pittsburgh

    1. Linda, we are all happy with the beautiful announcement of Bianca’s arrival and we will keep you posted.
      The May concerts will be broadcast on Canale 5, but then as always we will share the videos with all the details here on Flight Crew.

      1. Will I be able to see the concerts in USA? What channel will that be here?

  7. Hi Daniela and Pat! Thank you for these wonderful videos and translations! Great article about our 3 beautiful men, it’s good to see them “home” at last…..even though we are missing them here in North America!
    Wow but you almost buried the best news! Igna and Michelle are expecting a sure to be gorgeous baby girl, Bianca! I couldn’t be happier for them but how difficult it must have been for Igna to so far away for so long knowing he’s going to be a dad…..he’ll be a great one! Lucky little girl!! She’s bound to be gorgeous with those big brown eyes, dimpled cheeks and curly hair of both her parents!! Thanks for brightening my day!
    Love and gratitude for both of you, Carol 😘❤️🤗 💖💖💖🎼🎤🙏☮️👶xoxo

    1. You’re most welcome, Carol! I know, I thought the same thing about Ignazio being away knowing that Michelle was pregnant. They will be wonderful parents! Sending love and hugs to you! 💗😘🤗

    2. Yes Carol, there is always a lot to read and see about our boys, but certainly the best news was that Ignazio is becoming a father, he wanted it badly, he never hid it and now for him it is a dream come true, he and Michelle are preparing to become parents of little Bianca, we are all happy about it.

  8. Thank you as always Daniela!
    They were indeed different on this US tour. As brilliant and adorably handsome as always, and also mature and in control. We were, thankfully and joyfully, in their hands.💚🤍❤️
    Congratulations to Michelle and Ignazio💕. Such wonderful news.
    Thanks again, Karen

    1. It’s true Klink and they themselves admit that this tour had a different flavor and once again they witnessed the great affection of the American fans.

  9. Wonderful news from Ignazio and Michelle! A very beautiful announcement with lovely and tasteful photos that show the Grande Amore. I believe that they will both be wonderful parents and that Piero and Gianluca will be great uncles. And what about Grandpa Michele! Above all, may everyone be well and healthy now!

    What surprised me was the name of the little girl. 🙂 I immediately remembered the interview that Vanity Fair published with the boys last year before Christmas. They were very open and honest in their answers, a very interesting article! They asked them questions from the Proust questionnaire one by one and one of them was: what is their favorite name. All the boys said a female name and Gian joked that according to that, they probably all want a daughter. And Ignazio’s answer was Bianca. And then he added that he was looking forward to making her ponytails with the help of a vacuum cleaner, as he had seen in a video somewhere. So my wish to have a daughter named Bianca has come true, now I also have long hair like Michelle’s!

    1. That is wonderful. And of course to grandpa Michele too and I don’t know when she is due, but what about October 4 , Ignazio birthday? Hmmm what do you think?

  10. Quelle belle nouvelle, une petite princesse Bianca… on t’aime déjà . Félicitations aux heureux parents! Le 2 avril dernier j’ai eu le plaisir de les voir en spectacle à Montréal dès leur entré
    sur scène j’avais les larmes aux yeux…Quel magnifique spectacle nous avons eu et après on les a rencontré mais tout a été très bref malheureusement! J’espère les revoir !!!!!

    1. Ginette, tu as eu de la chance de les voir quand même.
      Leurs concerts sont très prenants, le temps passe et on ne se rend pas compte qu’on est déjà à la fin et qu’ils nous manquent.
      Comme je l’ai dit, ce sont des « animaux de scène »

      Je pense que la petite Bianca ressent déjà toute l’affection qui l’entoure.

      Ginette, you were lucky that you saw them.
      Their concerts are very engaging, time passes and you don’t realize that you are already at the end and you miss them.
      As I said they are “stage animals”

      I think little Bianca already feels how much affection is going around her.

  11. Thank you Daniela for the wonderful news from Michelle and Ignazio. They will be wonderful parents and I wish them all the joys of experiencing parenthood. The fan video was nice. Sometimes it’s hard to believe the guys are thirty now and that we have been watching them for sixteen years. It will fun to watch them all marry and start families.

    1. Yes Cathy it seems impossible that so many years have passed since the beginning of Il Volo’s career.
      I am sure that Ignazio and Michelle will be excellent parents, this baby girl has already been very much desired.

  12. Wat een geweldig nieuws en heel veel geluk samen ook verder II Volo met jullie geweldige stemmen

    1. Andrea, we hebben alleen maar goed nieuws, we hopen dat het altijd zo zal blijven, onze geliefde jongens verdienen dit allemaal.

      Andrea, there is only good news, we hope it will always be like this, our beloved boys deserve all this.

  13. Dear Cathy, you are lucky (and not only you) to have been able to follow them from the beginning. I had to catch up on all your knowledge. But you are right that it is incredible that they are already 30 years old. They have gone through a huge transformation, not only physically, but also musically. Only those who have been following them for 16 years can truly appreciate that. (I started later). But once you start, you can’t stop. They somehow slowly and quietly become such a distant part of your family. Not only because of who they are, but above all because of what they are.
    From little stars, the boys have become big world stars. But without the starry manners, eccentricities and scandals. They have remained immediacy, humility, kindness, the desire to always learn and, above all, enormous empathy. We watch them grow up, just like our own children. As they grow older, we share their happiness and their problems with them from a distance. And we wish them all the best in this world. Success, love, family… Yet somehow we still intuitively consider them “children” (at least we, the slightly older generation). And now we suddenly find out that the first of them is going to become a dad! This is when you realize how quickly time flies and that at 30, guys have definitely left the category of “children” and become great “young men”.
    I watch the enthusiasm of the ilvolovers rise when I look at the announcement of Ignazio and Michelle on Instagram. Bianca must already have a huge fan base as the first “ilvolo baby”! I have no idea what month Michelle is in, but since she already knows they are expecting a girl, I would guess at least the fourth. Now it will be a difficult period for both of them, when they will have to cope with the distance between each other and Ignazio’s tour commitments. And I really hope that when that special day comes, they will both be there, so that they can look into little Bianca’s face for the first time together.
    ❤️+❤️=❤️❤️❤️

    1. Iva, you eloquently put into words everything that I think. I agree with everything you said! 😊 💕

    2. How many beautiful and truthful words you wrote Iva, everything very thoughtful and affectionately described.
      Our boys are no longer children but men who open themselves to life with maturity, Ignazio is the first who has faced marriage and now fatherhood, but I am sure that it is a predominant idea also in Gianluca and Piero: the family. All three have had excellent foundations and in their ways have always put them as an example, the path continues and we are spectators of this beautiful journey.

  14. What an amazing story of these wonderful guys and their career. It’s so true, their concert in the US gets bigger and bigger every year, we just can’t wait too see them next year. I was lucky to see them with my friend and they never disappoint. My congratulations to Ignazio and Michelle with the wonderful baby news, I’m so happy for them.

    1. Gail, those who attend their concerts are enthusiastic and often wait to see them again, health permitting.
      The three of them are also great stimulators of well-being, attending their concerts, in some cases can alleviate a painful journey and also give hope, who knows if Ignazio, Gianluca and Piero are aware of this effect of theirs.

  15. Thanks so much, Daniela and Pat, for this fun post–and also belatedly for the last couple of U.S. tour posts. They helped those of us who were there to relive them and those who weren’t able to go to feel like they did.
    I immediately had tears in my eyes when I saw your photos of Igna and Michele. I know how much and for how long he has wanted this.

    1. Yes Judi, the concerts in North America are over but the echoes of the success still remain in the eyes of those who attended.
      We all share in the joy of Ignazio and Michelle.

  16. I’ve been expecting the baby announcement anytime now. I wonder when the birth date is to be? That little Bianca is one fortunate Boschetto to be. Her parents will be in a perpetual state of adoration and she will be at the very top of their many wonderful achievements. Wonderful news for all of us. Mark

    1. Mark, I think Ignazio came on tour knowing the news, obviously he kept it a secret but I think it was really hard for him. Bianca was very much wanted and we are all happy that this expectation came true. I don’t dare to think about Ignazio and Michelle’s happiness!!

  17. congratulaions to Uncle Piero and Gianluca and granpa Michele and a birthday Oct 4 would be something. I dont know when she is due !

  18. I am so glad I saw this story! Thank you as always Pat and Danielle! 🩷 I have lots of Il Volo Flight Crew reports to catch up on and looking forward to reading about their latest. They are looking and sounding great!

    1. Thanks Amy for the lovely compliments, there is so much to read in the old Flight Crew posts, I started writing here in 2017 but I too have read so many posts from previous years.

  19. This baby is going to loved by so many, many abuellas and nonnas . There are thousands of us waiting for the birth of this baby who already has a special place in my heart.

    1. I confirm RoseMarie, this little girl, in addition to the affection of Ignazio and Michelle and all their relatives, including her step-uncles Piero and Gianluca and their families, and her grandfather Torpedine, will have many grandmothers, great-grandmothers, aunts scattered throughout the world, it is a great joy that once again unites all the fans!

  20. P.S. I forgot to mention the terrific photos of the guys at Andrea Bocelli’s ABF foundation and the wonderful words about them. It seems such a good thing that they all are mutually respected friends now. Plus, the announced lineup of guests at Mantua is impressive–and I actually know seven of them now–thanks to you and our guys.

  21. Daniela & Pat!! – you two outstanding humans with big hearts I thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking us on this magnificent journey – your inputs are resoundingly interesting & given in great detail – Ignazio & Michelle both reflect impressive countenances – which tells me they are both good honest & genuine people – not only to each other but to all they meet – our little bub is going to be born into a beautiful family & may I say the IL Volo family as well – what stunning people to be around & of course our excellent Michele – the manager of IL Volo – what a fine gentleman he is – he truly loves Piero – Ignazio & Gianluca – I have not seen much on Youtube of the boys concerts in the US – so it has been uplifting to see the hard work you girls have put into this project on ‘Facebook’ – you are becoming an international entity!! – how wonderful!! – IL Volo will never go away!! – they will only become better with maturity – they are wholesome & outstanding in every way – gone are the days when they used to beat each other up backstage – hahaha!!! – love you girls for the love & respect you display to all the folks who send you comments – much love from Queensland.

    1. Jude, your compliments made me blush, thank you!!
      It’s nice and uplifting to know that what Pat and I have published has been helpful to those who don’t receive much news about our beloved boys, but I assure you that there are many beautiful videos on YouTube that you have yet to discover.
      The beauty of reporting news is also that of giving some really beautiful ones that bring so much joy, like the announcement of Bianca’s arrival…..priceless!!

      1. I totally agree. Everything is fantastic. The articles, videos and photos and of course the news of baby Bianca and the wonderful parents . Good luck for upcoming 2025 concerts and Bianca birth How about October 4th Ignazio birthday? I don’t know when Michelle is due. Uncles Piero , Gianluca and grandpa Michele and to both families good luck!!❤️❤️

  22. You’re most welcome, Jude! 😊 Thank you for your love and kind comments! 💗😘 If you go to YouTube and search for IL VOLO in any of the U.S. cities and you’ll see lots from this year’s tour. Someone even recorded 56 minutes from the concert I attended at the Seminole Hard Rock Live in Davie/Hollywood, Florida. Search for Il Volo World Tour 2025 – Our Unforgettable Night!

    1. Dear Pat – what a sweetie you are!! – I have written the details down so that I don’t forget – thank you once again – much appreciated.

  23. I am very late to this thread, but I am thrilled to hear the good news! A sweet bambina named Bianca. I wondered why Michele didn’t accompany Ignazio on the U.S. tour; now we know.

    Thanks Daniela and Pat for keeping us informed with all the good and uplifting news. We Americans really need that right now.

    1. Thank you Sally for your lovely compliments, yes Ignazio and Michelle cheered us up with their wonderful news!!
