Ciao amici


My daughter got an offer to play her violin on a patio at an Italian restaurant.

I'm looking for a few well known Italian songs she could do. All I can think of is "volore" and "That's Amore" Anything else?

Also if you have any leadsheets and/or backing tracks that would be very welcome!

Grazie amici miei

Paul, I will get on that for you, and would think some others here might be able to help also ...

Paul, I think the book in Jerry's second link has just about everything she would need as far as sheet music is concerned, but see my response to your PM.

Also, hopefully someone might have some backing tracks ...

Best wishes to her.

A big thank you to Donny, Jerry and Tony!

Di niente. In bocca al lupo

Grazie amici miei

I don't know if its in the orevious lists but That's Amore, Mala Femmina, and Theme from the Godfather. I do the Godfather theme with a violin sound on my BK9 and it works great.

I don’t know why I didn’t think of those especially the God Father. Thanks Bill!

Songs like Il Mondo (The World), Volare, El Bimbo(Totally different meaning), Arrivererci Roma, Piccolissima serenata, Al di la, Santa Lucia, Funicula Funicula, Un Bachio, Torna Sorrento, Godfather theme, Tarantella, Tu Vuò Fa' L'Americano(We speak no Americano), Mambo Italiano, O sole mio.

Thank you Manuel for the great suggestions. She played the gig last night and did really well. She got hired for the rest of the summer to perform on the patio. Seems safe to me...

She did a few of the Italian songs, along with her usual classical themes, and current pop tunes. But actually the stuff that went over the best was county and tejano. We are in Texas after all!

That's great, Paul ... following well in her parents footsteps ... wishing her much success ...
