My idol has been Franco Corelli. But every singer can teach you something.
It's always beautiful to sing with other great voices. I like voices in general. It's a big privilege to have great singers next to me.
The activity of a singer that sings opera is similar to that of an athlete.
When I began singing, it was the first time I was happy in my life. As a baby, I would stop crying when I heard a great singer.
The most widely criticised singers in the history of opera, Maria Callas and Franco Corelli, happen also to be the best singers. I am honoured for being part of their group.
I started as a lyrical singer. But it was through the pop universe that I reached international fame.
