GIOVANNI VELLUTI (pianist)
The Italian pianist Giovanni Velluti has forged a distinguished international career as soloist, chamber musician and accompanist. He has enjoyed a particularly important close association with Katia Ricciarelli, whom he has partnered since 1994 in many tours and television broadcasts throughout Europe, America, Africa and the Middle East, and in many television broadcastings. Other leading singers with whom he has worked regularly are Andrea Bocelli, Gianfranco Cecchele, Manuela Custer, Daniela Dessì, Kristian Johansson, Daniela Barcellona, Carlo Lepore, Giacomo Prestia, Enrico Salvadori, Gianluca Terranova.
Giovanni was decisively influenced by his encounter with the teacher Rodolpho Caporali, a direct pianistic descendant of Chopin and Thalberg. He has performed in the most important Italian concert halls and in more than 30 foreign countries.
FEDERICA GIBILISCO (soprano)
Soprano Federica Gibilisco, born in Rome, studied at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory and then with Renato Bruson at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena and Mirella Freni in Modena.
She has performed as the leads in Verdis "La traviata", Donizettis "Lelisir damore", Mozarts "Le nozze di Figaro" and "Die Zauberfloete", Puccinis "La bohème", and many others in both Italy and abroad. Federica has taken part in several recent gala concerts, including the concert in Siracusa for UNICEF and at St. Peters Basilica for Pope John Paul II.
SERENA MUSCARIELLO (mezzo soprano)
Graduated in 2011 at the Conservatorio Giuseppe Martucci of Salerno, after some years as artist of the choir at the Teatro Giuseppe Verdi in Salerno, at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples and at the Teatro Lirico in Cagliari, the young mezzo soprano Serena Muscariello started a successful solo career which led her to debut in a short time the roles of Flora, in La traviata, Mercedes, in Carmen and Lola, in Cavalleria rusticana.
