Italian is the language of music

You may already know some French and you may even be bilingual in German. You just still think of a European language that you would like to learn: Italian.
Because when you learn Italian, you learn much more than the language and its vocabulary and conjugations. Behind their expressions and the sound of their words, the language of music and its history are hidden.
A very rich history that begins at the time of the great operas. Because even Mozart, who was of German origin, wrote his works in Italian, thus preferring the language of Dante to that of Gutenberg.
Italian is the official language of music . And that, long before the arrival of English and British rock’n’roll.
It is in the 17th century when opera was born in Florence . In 1607, Claudio Monteverdi became the first composer to mix lyrical singing and theater in the same work entitled “Orpheus”. The style of the opera then spread throughout the country, and later throughout Europe and mainly in France thanks to Cardinal Mazarin.
Many Italian works are still performed today at the Opera Garnier in Paris.
Today we find the Italian vocabulary of music all over the world.
In order to designate the different nuances on the piano , we speak, for example, of mezzo-forte or forte . As for the tone of a singer’s voice, we will specify that it is a:
baritone
soprano
high
alto, etc.
Even in our time, great singers continue to spread the sounds of the language beyond the Italian borders.
Luciano Pavarotti, sadly deceased in 2007, was one of the best opera singers in the world. Andrea Boccelli is widely recognized in the world of music. Italian is the language of music
