British-Italian tenor Freddie De Tommaso is joining Classic FM to host a new six-part series celebrating the classical music of Italy.
Notes from Italy will see Freddie focusing on an Italian city each week and exploring the musicians who’ve made their mark there. Featuring renowned recordings, Freddie will share his personal stories of performing in those cities.
Freddie De Tommaso said: “I grew up with an Italian father who played opera all day and immersed us in all aspects of Italian culture, not least its many culinary treasures.
“Italy is in my blood – and my heart – and I’m delighted to share my passion for this great country with Classic FM’s listeners.
“I look forward to taking them to the Italian cities that mean the most to me, sharing some of my experiences there and playing the great music associated with them.”
Notes from Italy with Freddie De Tommaso starts this Friday, 5th April from 9pm-10pm on Classic FM.
