A new era has just begun. The time where crossover tenors sing Nessun Dorma, Caruso, You raise me up etc. is past! There is more than that, time for a change. Viva Belcanto!
..
Baroque means highly decorated. Baroque music is splendid, dressed up, and full of confidence. It is also very complicated. It has overlapping melodies, trills and runs that decorate the music
like flowers on a birthday cake. The composer's job was to make the music emotionally. Feelings like joy and pain were represented by musical themes called motives. Baroque music is polyphonic - many voices of equal importance - giving music of this period a wide texture.
..
Music of this time is very emotional and expressive, too. The main elements of Baroque music are a strong rhythm, terraced dynamics (passages of loud music followed by soft music), and improvisation. Improvisation means to make up the music as you go along. Alessandro has specialized in early music and its history, after spending some time thinking about where he wants to position himself in the music business, he begun to create a new niche, so he took all the elements of baroque, music, decoration, costumes etc. and transformed it in the 21st Century, there is no limit and Alessandro enjoys complete artistic freedom and the most important part, he lives his vision and shares his emotions with his audience.

About Alessandro
..
..
A mix of Swiss quality and precision, Italian passion and imperialistic style. The pearls and secrets of Baroque. Grace, beauty and elegance combined with a touch of old Hollywood. A man of polished manners and very down to earth, as his international fans consider him. He sings and speaks in more than five languages and communicates through his heart and his eyes.
..
..
With his crystal clear, light, lyrical voice and his charismatic presence he knows how to captivate his audience. You won’t be disappointed, your senses overwhelmed. “Charmed” by this unique artist.
..
Of Italian extraction, the lyrical tenor Alessandro grew up in Switzerland. He began his studies under the aegis of opera and concert singer Werner Ernst in Zurich.
..
In 1995, as an advanced singer, he was accepted for tuition with
Ruthilde Boesch in Vienna, the chamber singer best known for assisting Edita Gruberova, coloratura soprano, La prima Donna assoluta to fame. In 1997, Alessandro auditioned with Alexander Pereira, the Director of Zurich Opera House, and, as a result, was awarded a scholarship by the Armin-Weltner-Stiftung for instruction in Vienna.
..
..
He took part in several international Singing Competitions and Master Classes by Teresa Berganza, Placido Domingo, Carlo Bergonzi, Nicolai Gedda and others..... Thanks to his flexibility and openness towards to all kinds of musical styles, he has been able to build a truly wide repertoire. Whether baroque, classical or crossover, Alessandro subjects each and every item to intensive study before performing it on stage. Not surprisingly, thanks to his Italian roots, he specialises in
bel canto. But his preferences also extend to the world of
Lieder as well as Neapolitan
Canzoni,
Tango Argentino and Viennese songs, which he brought to perfection during his years in Vienna. “Songs like: Vienna city of my dreams, my mother was a Viennese etc.... it is always a highlight, because people like them and remember them well, especially during New Year.
In autumn 2002, accompanied by musicians from the Zurich Chamber Orchestra, he recorded a CD featuring the rarely performed songs of Charlie Chaplin. The CD was then premiered at a concert with French “Star” singer Patricia Kaas. Concert tours followed. In 2006 his debut CD Amore mio was released.
