A Magical Night in Italy Wows Audiences with the Powerful Vocals of Tenor, Joseph Spinella

SARASOTA, FL, December 16, 2012 (Press-News.org) On Thursday, January 10, 2013, the Broadway Bar Restaurant hosts the 'Magical Night in Italy,' a traditionally-flavored dinner and show with a special menu to continue the New Year. Joseph Spinella's show provides an excellent accompaniment to the intimate trattoria-style establishment of Broadway Bar Restaurant. He performs many Italian favorites, such as 'O Sole Mio' and 'Funiculi Funicula;' and audience participation is encouraged. The lively, entertaining music is mesmerizing and audiences invariably offer standing ovations hoping for an encore.

A native of Wayne, NJ and residing in Sarasota, Florida, Spinella is a classically trained tenor soloist and performer, offering a diversified repertoire including opera, classical crossover, musical theater, light jazz and romantic songs. He is a tenor of the 21st Century and is best known for his charismatic live performances. His latest single, 'Trust in Me' is a classical-crossover song that is scheduled for release this December. He sings in six languages and his repertoire includes many songs in Italian, Spanish, English, and French. He is a producer of a new show, Spinella Tenor of Illusions. The show combines classic Italian songs with big-stage illusions and premiered in October 2012.

Spinella was awarded a scholarship to Manhattan School of Music in New York City. A few years ago, he was discovered by Paul Nadler, one of the Metropolitan Opera conductors and was invited to work with Metropolitan Opera coaches in NYC. This began his regular sessions with Joan Dorneman, who was also Luciano Pavarotti's vocal coach for thirty years.

Spinella has participated in Master Classes with Birgit Nielsen, Eleanor Steber, and Regina Resnik. His tenor voice quality was described by Princeton's weekly newspaper, Town Topics, as "a solid Metropolitan Opera level performer."

His career soared with concerts and engagements in Europe and in the United States. "One of the most memorable performances for me, I think, is Lucia di Lammermoor with the Israeli Philharmonic under the baton of Zubin Mehta," states Spinella about his operatic work.

His current album, Spinella Tenor of Illusions, is available on both Amazon.com and iTunes and has been featured on various radio stations in the U.S. The album features poperatic arias and traditional music that exemplifies classic Neapolitan songs. Backed by the Emmy-award winning, Macedonia Radio Symphony Orchestra, this all-Italian album contains 13 songs and displays Spinella's mastery of bell'arte del canto.

"Spinella's voice reminds us of the great tenors like Caruso, Lanza and Pavarotti. The expressive tenor voice and delivery of these songs, by Spinella, demonstrates to us why they remain classics," reports World Book and News.
