The music was already part of him from an early age, when with curiosity he pursued the passion of his father, then a member of the choir of his hometown, Modena. He began studying singing very early, to cultivate the passion that time had made ever stronger. He met two great masters on his journey, Arrigo Pola and Ettore Campogalliani, and with them he set off on his adventure as a tenor. There is a work that marked his great debut and that then accompanied him in the most important phases of his success. It is “La Bohème” by Giacomo Puccini, who performed for the first time in 1961.
