Artistic Cast:

1. Giovanni D´Amore

G iovanni Concolino D’Amore nasce, was born 260km from Palermo, in the town of Taormina. His parents are Carmela and

Franco.

His first childhood years were spent in the village of Graniti, his mother’s natural town having to attend compulsory schooling.

Intrinsically in Giovanni is music, at the age of two, already he used to utter chants, but only at the age of eight did he start studying music at the Oratory of San Roque, Sondrio. However, his life changed course and so returned to Sicily.

Maestro Luigi Scarpignato´s wisdom was shared with Giovanni. With him he learned his first values. Piano was his prime concern and, as his private tutor, Scarpignato opened other doors to this little boy full of charisma. Prepared as he was for the Conservatory in Parma - 1979/80,

he moves to the so called city “cradle of music” referring to memorial names such as Verdi, Toscanini, Pizzetti, among other notables.

He initiates his studies on the violin, piano, percussion, voice, becomes part of the choir, as a listener he attends classes in composition and reading scores.

Becomes friends with Adolfo Tanzi’s, studying together Polyphony in the Choir Ildebrando Pizzetti in Parma´s University, and later in the Choir of Teatro Régio.

Giovanni´s study refers to Classical and Operatic music, later in life being his future profession, although he is also involved in pop/rock music. With themes and timeless masterpieces which influenced the artist, Giovanni will, during his twelve years experience, side by side with his classical studies, his performances in luxurious hotels, private elite parties through Italy, Portugal and other countries survive as a pianist in “piano bars”. This is one of the most important stages of his life. He sings throughout the world, Malta and Switzerland, in cruises till the United States.

It´s in this prestigious context that Giovanni recalls his encounter with the great ambassador of “Fado”, the Diva and Lady of Portugal Amália Rodrigues. Being it a coincidence or not Giovanni D’Amore performs in a tv show “Praça de Alegria” on RTP1, and amazingly the Diva makes a call on air and salute the Sicilian tenor. A great esteem surges between them both.

After the death of Amália, Giovanni is invited by her collaborators to honor the great Lady, in which he accepts without hesitation..
