These three young men did not disappoint. Their individuality, sense of humour and group harmony was most enjoyable The only thing that would have improved the evening was some back projection on the empty large white screen with perhaps some scenes of where they come from in Italy. The stage was extremely bare.
This was one of the best performances I have ever seen. I attended with my cousin and she thanked me many times profusely for bringing her with me. The talent of such young men is admirable and breathtaking
My first time seeing them can't wait to go again they are fabulous singers and all are very personable
They have great, strong voices and sing wonderful music. However, their stage presence is very amateurish. Too bad that big screen behind them was never used.
a bit of a let down...not loud enough and too the interplay between the group was a bit much...one seemed completely uninterested in what was happening...for a ticket that cost $100 - we expected better
Good show boys as always are very entrentanig with such a powerful voices
The opening performance of Nicki Yanoffski was a child's play and easily forgettable by comparison with the main event -- Il Volo. They are extraordinarily talented and as good as their CDs are, they come nowhere near the actual concert! Despite their youth Il Volo is at the height of professionalism. Their voices are superb and easily the best in the genre. They performed a great deal of their old and new repertoire as well as a couple of solos each, which were the highlights of the concert. Piero Barone's first solo paved the way for numerous subsequent standing ovations from the audience. The performances were a great hit with both the younger and the older audiences which was evident from the loud cheers of all Generational and cultural gaps were bridged that night by the magical voices of Il Volo. True music reign supreme over all present! Best way to describe the entire experience is to say that it was indescribably beautiful and magical! In more prosaic terms I would say: "Best money ever spent! and if they are coming again I'll most definitely be going for as many of their concerts as our fair city will host!" Until the next time, I'll have my memories of the fantabulous Il Volo!!!
SIMPLY THE BEST POP OPERA GROUP OUT THERE. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT SHOW.
Thought Nikki Yanakofsky was good as the opening act but the audience was there for Il Volo. The boys were amazing. I have seen their specials on PBS and their voices are magical. Each one has its own special quality. My heart was a flutter as I listened to the beautiful music. I am not familiar with many of the songs that they sang, and many were in Italian but that made no difference. My friend and I kept looking at each other like we were experiencing a miracle, it was that good. I really can't understand why the venue wasn't sold out with the large population of Italians in Toronto. If you weren't there too bad you missed the best concert of the year.
The performance of the trio is fantastic,would see it again
they are awesome their songs were amazing their performance
Loved every second of the Il Volo concert. Their voices are fabulous. The theatre in Vancouver, apparently a smaller venue, was sooooo much better than the big hockey arena. Glad I travelled from Calgary; would attend one of their concerts again.
What talent! They certainly have it. I would like to see them in five years - hope they are still delightful, not spoiled by success. How about singing a couple songs from the 60's and 70's..
I took my parents to this concert and it was amazing!! My siblings came as well and had a great time!! The Boys put on a Fanastic Show!!!
They were great but since this was the start of the tour needs some adjustments. Music was way too loud and needn't be. They have great voices and were almost drowned out at times. Maybe setup for large venue but spotlights in our faces at our theater was very disturbing. Other than that their voices and songs were outstanding.
Loved the show but found the lighting to be poor. We did not like the way the lighting was handled and found at times the person singing did not have a spot light on them. It just didn't look right. Also people moving around behind the scenes back and forth we found very distracting. There should have been a black curtain or something so this was not visible to the audience. Other wise the performance was outstanding and IL Volo was more than we could have ever wanted. So talented! We would go again if they come back to Vancouver as they are worth every penny we spent and more! We also would have liked their performance to be longer with more songs, perhaps next time as they are just starting out on their tour and are new to this new way of life for them. I am sure they are overwhelmed with the reception they receive wherever they go! We are in Awe of their talent!
I've watched their You Tube videos and now to have seen them sing live - it's incredible to see how much growth they have gone through in the last 3 or 4 years. The clarity in their vocal range and stage presence was apparent at the first drop of a note for each member. Usually when you think "boy band" there is vocal strength collectively, but for this group individually they are so gifted that when they sing together you are hit by this force of magic. It's hard to describe. They sang for 2 hours. I thought the lighting and stage set up was great, they worked the stage well. They don't need much amplification so it could have been toned down that night, but that's a minor detail. I met the boys when they were in town - so very nice and you realize how young they really are: two are still in their teens and one is 20 years old I think. They are young heartthrobs in Latin America. It will be interesting to see them evolve and I'm sure if each member decides to branch out on their own in the future- each will reach great success too. They are just too talented.
The Group was good , my problem is with the sound level of the music, the music covered the singing to the point of not being able to here the vocal parts at times. The bass was to loud all the time and the reverb was to active.
Partly due to bad sound system setup with volume so high it was distorted for 3/4 of the concert before they adjusted it to a tolerable level. Must have wondered why audience was sitting there with their fingers in their ears. 3 tenors wannabes, not harmonise well, mostly enjoyed solos. Never liked 3 or 4 (yes you, Il Divo!) singers each singing short verses of a song in turn.
My first time seeing these young men and they were wonderful. I enjoyed their song selection, their banter and their enthusiasm. All in all a very enjoyable evening hearing songs from my childhood (I'm Italian) sang so beautifully.
