THE THRILL OF ANTICIPATION
Anticipation….a word that speaks of expected pleasure to come…a promise that something good is ahead. It urges us to think about what we have to look forward to with eager excitement.
Many of us are anticipating a wonderful experience this winter when our special young men will be gracing us with their presence again.
There is the anticipation of hearing the soft mellow tones of Gianluca’s velvet voice. Yes, those velvet tones come through on the CD’s, but are doubly enhanced when accompanied by his impish grin and twinkling eyes when he is seen in person. He has grown into a real charmer with glances that could melt a glacier. He’s even become graceful and adept at dance moves—something he found difficult in the early years.
Yes, we anticipate being charmed by our precious Gianluca.
We look forward to Ignazio’s anticipated antics…..his infectious grin and the affection he shows for his brothers.
We love his playfulness, but we know he isn’t all fun and games. He has a beautiful, well-trained voice, and he uses it magnificently. We have seen how much a part of the song he becomes emotionally in “Memories” and “Yo Te Amo.” Yes, we anticipate being enthralled by our magnificent Ignazio.
We eagerly anticipate Piero‘s appearance right before our eyes on stage with his compelling presence. And when his meraverglioso voice reaches the heights of his amazing range, soaring with power and breathtaking beauty, we are weak with the thrill of it. Yes, we anticipate soaring to musical heights with our wonderful Piero.
We anticipate having the time of our lives when confronted by the boys—their stage presence, participation with the audience, and interaction among themselves…the perfect blending of their amazing voices, their enthusiasm for the music, their enjoyment of being on stage and entertaining their fans.
Let’s relish the joy of anticipating this upcoming event whether it’s our first concert or one of several. In view of the world-wide popularity they have gained and the demands for personal appearances, we feel especially blessed that they are coming back to us–to the place where they started--to those who first realized their potential and loved them from the beginning.
It would be perfect if every one of our Flight Crew were going to be able to attend a concert this year, but sadly, that may not be happening. I sincerely hope that those who can’t will feel joy in anticipating the arrival of our dear young men back on tour in the USA. There will be reports and comments and videos for all to see. Somehow just knowing that they are HERE can make us happy.
So, here’s to ANTICIPATION: Knowing that something good lies ahead. Let’s enjoy the waiting time thinking of what a delicious treat we have in store.
