“La lontananza” is one of Domenico Modugno finest songs. He combines recitation and singing naturally… and when accompanied by all that is needed for a Grand Entertainment Event… then the result is memorable and set aside for permanent enjoyment. Mr Volare as he was also called must be looking down from one of those white clouds in the sky… I hope that he doesn’t mind us singing his song on this special afternoon here in one of Melbourne’s suburban homes! Thank you Dora Marchese and son Rino for your company today. Now Angelo and Benito must wonder what we are doing! It’s only another of Tom’s initiatives to highlight “Le canzoni della Bella Lingua”
