Gianluca Paganelli
He studied with his uncle, baritone Ludovico Malavasi, and has also taken lessons from renowned singers such as soprano Renata Scotto and tenor Luciano Pavarotti and Alfredo Krauss.
Gianluca Paganelli is an operatic tenor who has mastered both the discipline of opera and the world of classical crossover.
In 2010, Gianluca won the Italian national talent show ‘I Raccomandati’ on Rai1 with over 6,000,000 viewers.
Paganelli is currently achieving success in England with the release of his compact disc ‘Tango’, introducing this new style of classical and pop singing. The album was launched at a press conference during ‘UK Marriage Week’ at Westminster in London,where Gianluca was introduced and interviewed in the presence of MPs, in the House of Commons. Thanks to this national platform and sponsorship from world renowned ‘Strictly come dancing’ judge Len Goodman, the album created a furore in the UK from that moment on, the reputation of the classical artist in Britain took hold and he was invited as a guest on numerous radio shows and appeared on television on BBC and ITV, for example in a radio interview with renowned journalist Maureen Walsh for a Sunday broadcast in Merseyside.
National and specialist magazines and newspapers such as the Daily Mail and Sunday Times covered the release of his album and featured him as a future star.
His many fans were delighted to see him perform on tour in 2011 and 2012 with famous artists such as The Soldiers and then Hayley Westenra, with whom he sang some famous hits taken from his crossover repertoire, including ‘Time to say goodbye’ and ‘Vivo per lei’. In addition to these songs, he performed a number of tunes from his album Tango: ‘No other love’ Blue spanish eyes, ‘La Cumparsita’, ‘Jealousy’ and ‘El choclo’.
These tours have taken him to some of the UK's most prestigious venues including Bridgewater Hall in Manchester and Sage Gateshead in Newcastle, with audiences of over five thousand at each show.
The tenor is a frequent guest at sporting matches, including the prestigious Six Nations in Tuikenham, London.
