Luigi Cirillo pursued music studies from an early age. An eclectic route, through saxophone and guitar, has led him to singing, where he has found his natural expressive dimension. He improved his vocalism under the guidance of M. Mario Castiglia as a soloist and chorister. He worked as a soloist with the Orchestra Fantasia Napoletana, touring throughout Italy.
Soprano Isabel Panè and guitarist Luca Villani obtained their Music degrees from the Conservatories of Matera and Rome respectively. Luca’s research on classical guitar rarities and Isabel’s predilection for jazz and the blues have merged to create a versatile Duo that offers crossover recitals, ranging from the Renaissance to the Tango, always focusing on sound blending and a strong stage presence.
