DESCRIPTION
Giorgia Fumanti is an Italian born soprano. Unlike other musicians who dream of singing from the moment they come out of their cot, Fumanti didn't even think of a career in music until she was into her late teens. A voice capable of opera, Fumanti chooses to fully embrace the fusion of classical and pop, and is confident in taking artistic control over her albums, including writing her own material. Fumanti enjoys adapting already established pieces into something a little different. Nothing drastic, but enough to make it refreshing: any other artist would have covered Sarah Brightman's adaptation of 'Nella Fantasia', but Fumanti records the song in English with her own lyrics. If you like Ennio Morricone, the good news is, Fumanti does too, and you will find four pieces of his on her album From My Heart. If you find pleasure in Izzy's albums, you are likely to enjoy Giorgia Fumanti.
