-Intro to Il Volo

For those of you that don’t know anything about the Italian trio, you may be surprised to know that they didn’t know each other until only 4 years ago. These talented men started their career in 2009 on Ti Lascio Una Canzone, a music television show in Italy. During the competition, the three singers were chosen to perform the Neapolitan classic “O sole mio”. After the competition, they continued to perform together under the names “Tre Tenori”, “The Tryo”, “Il Trio”, and finally in the fall of 2010,  ”Il Volo” (which translates to “the flight” in Italian). Seeing how positively people were taking to Piero Barone, Gianluca Ginoble, and Ignazio Boschetto as a whole, producers Tony Renis and Humberto Gatica decided to work on a album. Il Volo is the first Italian group to sign an American label! These young men that don’t even reach 21 yet, are going very far, very soon.
