THE FAIRY TALE GOES ON by Daniela

Perhaps many of you have already seen this video, done by IL VOLOCOMIO, but I want to translate the background words for you. This is the beautiful presentation made at the Verona concert in September 2015. Who reads is a famous Italian actor, Giancarlo Giannini, the video was made just to confirm the good words.

A modern fairytale does not start with “Once upon a time …..” because it happens here, and now.

A modern fable, has no dragons, nor princesses, as protagonists.

Start in Italy, think, in some cities of our beautiful province.

More than the characters, the real protagonists are: the passion that animates them and friendship.

The passion for the “bel canto” that takes possession of three kids, the friendship that, instead of the soccer field, grows in front of a large orchestra.

And what passion and friendship alone cannot, is achieved by talent.

Passion, friendship, talent, are not the names of three fairies, but when in life, rarely happens that they get together, as if they were, they realize magical things.

This modern fable does not have an ending, because it has just begun and is still to be written, and it speaks of three guys, who have taken flight, IL VOLO.

In this video of the concert in Verona 2015, Giancarlo Giannini introduces CANZONE PER TE, reading the first verse of the song.

Meanwhile, about MUSICA CHE RESTA, Emilio Munda (music writer) in an interview said:

It’s the first time I work with IL VOLO and I’m going to Sanremo, so a set of things that excites me so much.

I cannot say much about MUSICA CHE RESTA, except that it is a lyrical pop very suitable for them.

Let’s say it’s a dress that they wear very well.

And here are our guys in the backstage of Sanremo, a photo shoot during an interview.

And all of you, are you ready to listen to MUSICA CHE RESTA?

We know that Ilvolovers the world over recognize that our guys belong at Eurovision and that many artists and critics have been vocal with their opinions to the contrary.  We also know that The Guys are keeping said criticism in perspective, choosing to ignore it until it comes from some of the artists they have met and hold in highest regard.  But still, how nice it is to see some fellow artists giving Il Volo their due?

Mans Zelmerlow, representative for Sweden, is very excited to be representing his country and thinks that Eurovision 2015 is going to be a tough competition.  In the article below, it is noted that he specifically mentions Il Volo, saying that they will be equally tough to beat.

And as you can see, Conchita Wurst, 2014 Eurovision Winner, agrees:

“In Sanremo I heard the flight [Il Volo], and I think ‘ Big Love ‘ [‘Grande Amore’] was an excellent choice; they may do very well.  Good luck Italy!” (translated by Bing)

The fourth single on the San Remo EP, “Canzone per te” has been released to Italian radio as the next single from the record.  I think we’ve all listened to the album enough that we know the song fairly well.  What are your thoughts on it?

In an interview post on LaStampa.it, Il Volo talks about their rise to fame and the aftermath of San Remo.  I can only imagine the changes in their lives — probably even more than they dared to dream as young boys six years ago!  We’re so proud of you guys!  Read the translation below, provided because of the hard work of our affiliate, AAIV.

Gianluca Visits More Children

All Things Il Volo
All Things Il Volo

On April 1, Gianluca visited the children of Associazione Genitori Bambini Emopatici, an organization for parents dedicated to the support of their children diagnosed with various blood diseases.

(All About Il Volo; Gianluca Visits AGBE Onlus Pescara).  I could imagine, before I read the article, how much his being there meant to them and how much inspiration he gave, and I was not at all surprised to read some of the following quotes:

Massimo Parenti, president of the AGBE said: “A clean face, a serene guy that, despite the stratospheric success, he keeps his feet on the ground. Humble, modest, at times shy and excited in front of children… It is not everyday a meeting so pleasant. Thank you, Gianluca.”   (from All About Il Volo;  Gianluca Ginoble At AGBE Onlus Pescara )

In life we need to fight to make a dream come true, you did it and succeed. We fight for our lives and perhaps one day we can make a dream come true and flight to the success. The boys and girls of AGBE wish you can continue to flight  (translated by All About Il Volo, Il Volo Links and News for April 3rd; cityrumors.it [photo gallery included])

The Children Sing “Grande Amore”
