It is with heavy hearts that we share in the sadness of this grave tragedy that afflicted Rio on Sunday. To AAIV and all fans of Il Volo in Brazil and South America, please know our thoughts are with you. My current boss was born in Rio, Brazil, so I, too, have a connection to this. 🙁
It said the museum did not have a fire suppression system, but was due to get a $5 million dollar grant/overhaul soon, which included a fire suppression system.
National Museum of Brazil Local name: Museu Nacional Location: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
The National Museum is the oldest scientific institution of Brazil and one of the largest museums of natural history and anthropology in the Americas. The museum is located inside the Quinta da Boa Vista park, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, and is installed in the Paço de São Cristóvão. The palace served as residence for the Portuguese Royal Family between 1808 and 1821, housed the Brazilian Imperial Family between 1822 and 1889, and also hosted the Republican Constituent Assembly from 1889 to 1891, before being assigned to the use of the museum in 1892.

The guys are quickly making their way now through South America with just 3 more concerts to go. It is hard to believe and what events they have been through so far, earthquakes, just missing hurricanes, etc. Things seemed to have settled down a bit, weather-wise since they actually got to South America. We are certainly glad of that!
The Latin crowd seems to be getting an all-around concert, kind of what I’d hoped for in the US – a little of this, a little of that, but as we all say, it doesn’t matter what they sing, it is awesome and never long enough! However, they are getting to hear Volare, Canzone per Te, Il Mundo, Mas Que Amor, and maybe even a few others people haven’t shared. Through these last few video clips, I think the guys are finally having fun again. The clip from Il Mundo, reminds me of “old” Igna, where he was bouncing on his toes during the refrain. Their voices just keep getting richer and richer. Their tones continuously awesome. Adding nuances here and there, just to keep it interesting!
Very special thanks to the AAIV group, who appeared to attend all of the concerts in Brazil and uploading their clips to Instagram. Also thanks to all owners of the videos and pictures and of course Ercole, Piero, and Gianluca, for always keeping us entertained. 🙂
I’d also like to welcome all the fans from the AAIV site, to enjoy our site. Please forward to all of your friends! 🙂
Enjoy!
OMG PICS! (we of course do not have the group from Sep 24 because it is tonight’s concert)

My doctor said I should add more cardio to my exercise routine, do you think he would approve of this? 🙂
The picture was a little gift from the hotel….was Piero trying to be incognito? 🙂

Hey, guys, can you let us in on the joke? 🙂
And now a few videos…
Muchas Gracias Todos! 🙂
Hasta luego! (3 more to go, Igna gets to spend his birthday at home with darling Alessandra, then it’s off to the Ukraine, Japan, and home for the holidays – and a night on a cruise ship? 🙂 ) And can’t forget Australia!
With regret, the concerts in Brazil on the Sweet Dreams Tour of Mariah Carey in which Il Volo was scheduled to appear have been cancelled as confirmed by Mariah.
Bing Translation of article’s opening:If Tuesday was not good for the ilvolovers, Wednesday is not expected to be better. After the cancellation of the show at Il Volo and Mariah Carey in Curitiba, in Sao Paulo and Porto Alegre are also cancelled, according to the American singer.
Devastated my shows in Chile, Argentina & Brazil had to be cancelled. My fans deserve better than how some of these promoters treated them. https://t.co/zuEXQL12Ek
