Everybody, even me, sometimes had to compromise on something, doing things we know to be wrong, and this happens doing whatever job in the world. But a singer must have the courage of saying no.
It’s logical for us to sing, but not necessarily operatic pieces.
Yes, you must have the courage of being free.
Yes, thanks to God… my life has a goal, much more important than my artistic activities, that is the struggle against Leukemia.
When you arrive at a certain level it’s very easy to say yes: that is the moment to learn to say no.
The happiest moment in my life? When my doctor told me I was completely cured of leukemia.
Music isn’t only a profession.
Italians have no sense of the dramatic.

I’ve always been a big fan of the American soul sound.
I love good food but I follow strict rules the days I perform.

I’ve always said that music is like literature.
