Italia

Juan Diego Florez, Decca's "king of the bel canto repertory" (New York Times) joins the illustrious list of tenors to record an album of popular Neapolitan and Italian songs. All the classic favorites are here - from O Sole Mio to Arriverderci Roma, Mattinata and Non ti scordar di me. Many of the songs have been newly arranged to evoke the feel of an authentic Neapolitan cafe band, and Florez is joined by star mandolin player Avi Avital and acclaimed accordionist Ksenija Sidorova.
