Having grown up playing Neopolitan style mandolin and guitar (taught by Dad and his cousin) in a mostly Italian family, this kind of music is special to me. I don't know how much Italian is in names like Don, Gary, Russ, Diki, and Donnie, but you can't help but appreciate the talent you are about to see if you already haven't seen the PBS concert they did (Tony Mads ought to like this). Everyone has heard of the three tenors and I remember how popular they became. But there are three others from Italy who, while not restricted to classical music, are becoming a similar sensation. The kicker is...they are all just 17.. Il Volo at Detroit opera house BTW, they are coming to NJ in Sept.
