Description of Patrizio

PATRIZIO showcases Buanne adding more strings to an already elegant bow. Recorded in Hollywood's Capitol Studios with Humberto Gatica (Josh Groban, Celine Dion, Michael Jackson) and in London with Brian Rawlings (James Morrison, Andrea Bocelli, Cher), the record augments his vocals with some of the classiest players in pop. On one level, the album remains true to Buanne's role as an ambassador for Italian song. The Italian compositions with which he made his name are still there, and several of them were even written in his homeland ("Never Never Never," "Estate," and "Tu vuo' fa l'ammericano"). But there are also new compositions, including Diane Warren's "Why Did You Have To Be?," "This Kiss Tonight," by UK songwriter Paul Barry and the self-penned "Solo Tu (My Baby)." Moreover, there are spirited interpretations of Bryan Adams' "Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman," the Willie Nelson-Patsy Cline hit "Crazy," and "You're My Everything," an undiscovered gem by Franco-American disco act Santa Esmeralda.

"What I make is pop music," says Buanne. "I do the same as Elton John, George Michael and Tom Jones. I'm searching for that same, timeless quality. If I sing a standard, I pick a song where the words really mean something. It's important to convey the sentiments in a credible way. An old song has to translate into the 21st century, and I believe this record presents my passion for interpreting timeless standards." This album and, in particular, these new recordings, herald a new era for the young Neapolitan. Buanne accomplishes a beautifully international slant on his natural way with song with PATRIZIO, and is revealed in a completely different light. PATRIZIO: A true voice of Dolce Vita.
