Biography

In May 2009, three fresh-faced teenagers, Piero Barone (17), Ignazio Boschetto (16), and Gianluca Ginoble (16), appeared on the popular Italian talent show “Ti Lascio Una Canzone” and dazzled television viewers with their flawless rendition of the Neapolitan standard “O Sole Mio.” The boys, who won the competition easily, decided their group needed a name. “Il Volo,” meaning “flight,” was chosen… Read more in Amazon's Il Volo Store

Editorial Reviews

IL VOLO - SPECIAL CHRISTMAS EDITION

Italian teen heartthrobs IL VOLO release IL VOLO - Christmas Favorites! The five song EP includes "Silent Night" and the German version "Stille Nacht," "Panis Angelicus," "The Christmas Song" featuring Pia Toscano (of American Idol fame) and a medley of classic Christmas songs including "Jingle Bell Rock," "Let It Snow" and "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year."

IL VOLO - Piero Barone 18, Ignazio Boschetto 17 and Gianluca Ginoble 16 have been receiving unanimous raves for their vocal talent and showmanship. "If you've never heard them sing 'O Solo Mio' or other classics in their rep, then be prepared to be blown away," raved NY's Daily News. "IL VOLO wring every ounce of emotion from the classical-crossover material on their self-titled debut, then find just a bit more to extract," commented The Village Voice.

Their self-titled Geffen Records debut produced by Grammy Award winning producer Humberto Gatica (Josh Groban, Michael Bublé) and Tony Renis landed at No. 10 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart upon its release and has sold over a half million copies globally. Il Volo has appeared on several TV shows since their May release including American Idol, The Today Show, Ellen, Leno, The Talk as well as the final episode of HBO's Entourage. Their astonishing vocal talent was first heard on the Italian hit TV show, "Ti Lascio Una Canzone (Leaving You A Song)."

Il Volo is better than this November 28, 2011
By Kay
Format:Audio CD
I absolutely love this group and attended their concert in NYC which was amazing. I could not wait for their Christmas release and sadly found it to be lacking in many ways. It seemed that the spark was gone and the arrangements didn't really showcase these amazing voices. Pia Toscana sounds great but there was really very little of her. Overall, I felt the album was hastily put together -- its actually only half an album with only 5 songs. These talented boys deserve better and their management should have done a better job for them. Hopefully, they will record another album of the caliber of their first.

Recycling? November 22, 2011
By bb
Format:Audio CD
I have been waiting for a Christmas album by Il Volo...thought it would be amazing. Instead, we get recylced material from their first release, plus a few X-mas songs thrown in for good measure. Even the cover art is recycled..in brown??? Ho, ho, ho, no.

recycled CD December 26, 2011
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Wish I had read the reviews before buying this one for my Father-in-law.
It's the same as their first CD (which we bought for him earlier in the year)
with a few Christmas songs tacked on the end of it. As another reviewer said
they even recycled the cover picture, only changing the background color.

Great Dissappointment
When I ordered this Deluxe Christmas Edition....thats what I expected....Christmas. I got almost a duplication of the other album of theirs with only a few Christmas Songs added.
