Enrico Caruso - Man, Myth, Artist, and God

The Italian Cultural Institute of Washington presents the book by Francesco Cotticelli and Paologiovanni Maione, “Enrico Caruso: L’uomo, l’artista, il divo” (2024, Hollitzer ed.)
The authors, Professor Francesco Cotticelli (Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II) and Professor Paologiovanni Maione (Università degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli), together with Professor Anthony R. DelDonna (Thomas E. Caestecker Professor of Music, Georgetown University), will guide us in a conversation exploring the career of the singer Enrico Caruso and his resounding contributions to opera and popular song.

The book offers a better understanding of Enrico Caruso, an extraordinary man, musician, and artist whose contribution to music goes well beyond opera, through the experiences of scholars in various disciplines including music, performing arts, and art and film history, who were touched by his genius.

The book presentation will be held in English.
