In Singing, You Cannot 'cheat'

My Real Passion Is For Opera. It Was Born And Developed By Listening To Records, And My Dream As A Child Was To Record Entire Operas When I Grew Up, And This Dream Came True.

I Respect Very Much My Public And Also The Music I Perform.

I Did A Pop Album, 'sogno,' In 1999. I Think It's Important To Record Another Pop Album Because Many People Love Pop Music. By This Kind Of Repertoire, Some People Can Later Discover Classical Music.

It's Important For Me Who Is At The Table With Me; The Moment When Everyone Speaks To Each Other And Everyone Listens. If There's Good Food, It's Much Better.

Let Me Say That I've Never Thought To Conduct Because The Conductor Has To Think To The Music Before The Orchestra. And The Orchestra Comes Later. For Me, It's Terrible.
