Patrizio Buanne:
Up Close & Personal Tour 2011

Pop Italian Songbook

PATRIZIO BUANNE was raised on Italian American singers Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. As a child, he fell in the love with the music of the 50s and 60s and maintains that old school cool with his rich baritone voice and romantic crooning.

Buanne spent his childhood shuttling between homes in Naples and Vienna, which sparked an early love for language. It seemed a natural progression for Buanne to study Slavic languages at university. While he studied, he also cultivated his gift of song. He won a local singing competition and, at the age of 17, performed for Pope John Paul II. After university, Buanne was offered a position as a TV entertainer in Italy. Yet, he dreamed of success in the music industry.

In 2003, he met music producer Christian Seitz, who encouraged Buanne to quit his TV career and work on an album. The pair recorded at the famous Abbey Road studios and produced L’Italiano, an album mixing traditional Neapolitan romance and singing tradition with Italian standards from the 50s and 60s.
