NEW ROCHELLE, NY — The New Rochelle Public Library will present a live musical performance, “Vincent Ricciardi Sings Mario Lanza & Caruso too!” on Saturday, October 18, from 3:00 – 4:00 pm.

With the classical power of Andrea Bocelli, the pop styling of Josh Groban and the romanticism of Mario Lanza, and in the tradition of the great Enrico Caruso, Vincent Ricciardi has dazzled audiences in the concert halls, theaters and night clubs throughout the Northeast. It’s New Rochelle’s turn to be swept away by his rich, powerful voice, as he performs a program celebrating the great tenors of the 20th century and today.

Mr. Ricciardi’s study of classical voice began in 2000 at Adelphi University with vocal coach Beverly Myers (Metropolitan Opera) and music professor Michael Hume (Leonard Bernstein’s Mass). He is currently under the tutelage of Composer/Conductor David Schaefer. He has performed with Dicapo Opera, Regina Opera, Opera of the Hamptons and Bleecker Street Opera.

The concert will be held in the Ossie Davis Theater and is made possible by the Friends of the New Rochelle Public Library. A donation of $2.00 is suggested at the door.
