Dolce vita

Description

The most beautiful Italian popular songs of all time.
The greatest tenor of today, undoubtedly the greatest living interpreter of Italian opera (including Verdi & Puccini), now pays tribute to the country and culture that have nurtured his love of music and from which the most beautiful popular songs for tenor come.
Although not born in Italy, Jonas Kaufmann is, so to speak, its adopted son, nurturing a privileged harmony with the Italian spirit and the characteristic flavor of its music. Immersed in Italy since his childhood, he possesses much more than the language. He feels at home there and develops a temperament particularly in harmony with the Mediterranean universe.
Recorded in Italy, with the Orchestra of the Teatro Massimo di Palermo, this new album of traditional and more recent Italian popular songs - from the 19th century to the present day - provides us with striking evidence of this.
The album includes many very famous titles, including: Torna a Surriento, Volare, Con te partiro, Core 'ngrato, Non ti scordar di me, Parlarmi d'amore Mariù, Caruso, Musica Proibita, and Un'amore così grande.
