Opera is complex for those who perform it, but also for those who listen to it. It takes more time, more patience and more spirit of sacrifice. All this is well worth it because opera offers such deep sensations that they will remain in a heart for a lifetime.

My idol has been Franco Corelli. But every singer can teach you something.

I studied law, and I was ready to be a lawyer in my country (Italy). Probably it is better for many clients that I changed my direction! But I was happy to study and I was a good student, I finished my studies. And everything that you learn is useful in life.

I do not think anyone can ever do anything without the help and will of God.

Stage fright is my worst problem.

When a little more than a teenager, I was a piano-bar pianist in the land where I was born and raised, Tuscany.

I am a very lazy man, so, for me, the dream is to be at home on the chair with my family.
