After 12 years with the La Scala Opera in Italy, noted tenor Stefano Milani makes his Los Angeles debut singing famous arias from famous operas in a series of concert recitals “Stefano Milani Sings” in the Bayview Rooftop Concert Hall high atop the Marina del Rey Marriott Hotel.
Milani’s unique approach adds an anecdotal dimension to his powerfully expressive voice, with brief explanations of the meaning and origin of each aria and each opera, including “Rigoletto”, “La Traviata”, “Tosca”, “Turandot” and “Pagliacci”. He also sings songs made popular by Frank Sinatra, John Lennon and Andrea Bocelli.
Performances begin Sunday May 1 at 4pm and 8pm, with an additional evening show on Thursday May 5, and a Mother’s Day Special Sunday May 8 at 4pm and 8pm (when Milani will personally hand out corsages to moms, as he sings “Mamma Felice” especially for the ladies).
Stefano Milani has played Carnegie Hall and the Londonderry Opera House. He’s the toast of concert going Europe – from Rome to Madrid, from Naples to Barcelona. He even has his own show “Passions of a Tenor” on board the Carnival Cruise Lines Flagship The Diadema.
Tickets are $38 – $68 – $88 at www.StefanoMilaniSings.com or call 818-510-1915
