Some photos of the concert:
In this stage, there was also the soundcheck, announced a few days ago by an email from IL VOLO. This is the first time for a public soundcheck in the US!
Mary and Mark Minton were at this concert, and they wrote this to me:
We were told to arrive at the beautiful Grand Theater at Foxwoods at 5 o’clock to meet for the sound check. When we went into the theater the boys were singing Mamma and they sounded amazing! There were only nine of us so we sat in the second row together and listened to them practice a few songs. When they were done they came over to greet us, shaking our hands and chatting a little. Gianluca’s mom was also at the sound check. After the sound check we were able to leave the theater until the doors opened at 7 o’clock. The show opened with “Nessun Dorma”, followed by “Il Mondo” and “Un Amore Così Grande” and “Surrender”. Gianluca’s solos were “Bridge over Troubled Water” and “Always a Woman to Me”. Ignazio sang “Memory” and “Tonight” and Piero sang “Love Story” and No Puede Ser”. Duet for Gianluca and Ignazio was “Maria”, for Gianluca and Piero was “My Way” and for Piero and Ignazio was “O Paese d’o sole”. The whole concert was a nice mix of English and Italian songs. “Volare”, “Libiamo ne’lieti calico”, “O Sole Mio” and the finale “Grande Amore” really had the audience on its feet singing along and with many standing ovations! The boys have never sounded better! Now on to Boston!
Another nice concert to add.
Thanks to Mary Minton for the report. Piero, Ignazio and Gianluca, take care of your voices, the journey is still long.
And are at the second stage of IL VOLO WORLD TOUR: LAVAL.
The audience was magnificent, another success.

Some shots of the beautiful evening.
At one point the boys wore the red hockey jerseys of the Hockey team: LAVAL ROCKET, with their names and “10” (for 10 years) on the back: GIANLUCA, IGNAZIO PIERO, really beautiful !! 😁😁😁
What can I say, it was a beautiful evening. Il Volo in great shape, wonderful voices.
Laval’s audience appreciated the performances of Piero, Ignazio and Gianluca whom they thank with affection.
Toronto, concert No. 1 of IL VOLO WORLD TOUR 2020, it was a success, but let’s go in order.
Let’s start with this beautiful message made by Piero in the afternoon before the concert.
IL VOLO World Tour 2020
I can assure you that I have not yet got used to the idea of doing concerts around the world. In fact, every new tour I relive it as if it were our first live performance. Adrenaline, enthusiasm and even a pinch of anxiety are always the same!
Today we kick off a new American “coast to coast” tour. We start from Toronto which was one of our first stops ten years ago.
So friends, fans, and to those who will see us for the first time live, get ready because we are all going to meet again in this crazy adventure.
The stage awaits us, so let’s sing all together.
Piero
Really sweet Piero. ❤️
But here we are on the evening of the concert. The photos and videos that have come to us are beautiful, many people full of enthusiasm.
Thanks also to Eleonora Ginoble who made some excellent shots.
Piero, Ignazio and Gianluca, elegant and in excellent shape, have bewitched all the audience who have reacted with such affection.
Even the master Grani came to accompany them !!
But let’s see some amateur videos.

More photos
And here are the first impressions of Penina Honig, who was present at the concert.
The first concert is now over. It was a smashing success played to a packed house. I am traveling today and doubt if I will have the time to write a full report but I will say here that there were NO Italian solos with the exception of No Puede Ser. Ignazio sang Memories and Tonight and Gian sang Bridge Over Troubled Waters and She’s Always a Woman.
Piero’s other solo was Love Story. While those are beautiful it was disappointing not to hear the two we were all hoping to hear, namely Mi Mancherai and Almeno Tu Nell’universo.The only song from Musica they sang was Musica Che Resta. It was a beautiful concert, the guys were full of energy, Iganzio was at his funniest, Piero had some silly moments and the crowd loved every minute.
Gotta run! If I have time I write a better article and send it to the new address.
I didn’t meet anyone although I did bump into Loretta in the hallway on the way home.
It seems to me that it was a great success!
I went through the photos of the Meet & Greet, I don’t know all of you personally, but some do, and I’m sure this is Loretta Foley with her son. Well Loretta, once again you managed to take the photo close to the boys and close to Ignazio! 😄
It was a very beautiful event!!
Grazie mille, Penina, for your report.
Ignazio, Piero and Gianluca, you are fantastic, your voices never disappoint.
And now go fast for the second stage of the tour: LAVAL.
