He was born in Cellino San Marco (BR) on May 20, 1943.

He discovered his vocation for music as a child, deciding to abandon his master’s studies and move to Milan at the age of 16 to follow in the footsteps of Domenico Modugno, a native of San Pietro Vernotico, a center only a few kilometers away from his Cellino.

The first approach to pop music comes thanks to the Clan of Celentano: he responds to an ad and is immediately hired. From that moment he chooses his name and becomes for everyone Al Bano.

Just over two years have passed since the signing of the first important contract with EMI. Shortly thereafter – in 1967 – he recorded the 45 rpm In the sun: an incredible recording success with one million three hundred thousand copies sold. In the same year she participates in the Italian tour of Rolling Stones.

Worldwide success is attested by 26 gold records, 8 platinum and songs like Sharazan, Happiness, Rogue nostalgia, It’s my life, In the sunjust to name a few.

From 1996 a new artistic phase opens: he returns as a soloist at the 46th Sanremo Festival with the song It’s my life. Without ever neglecting pop music, the temptation to try his hand at opera is strong for an artist with extraordinary singing skills who performs in Bad Ischl (Salzburg – Austria) with tenors Placido Domingo And Jose Carreras.

His artistic life is deeply imbued with faith. Enlightening, on a personal level, were the encounters with His Holiness John Paul II, in the presence of which the singer has performed several times. Particularly alive, in him, is also the memory of Mother Teresa of Calcutta And Father Pioknown in the fifties.

Al Bano he was the UN Ambassador Against Drugs.

In the publishing field, life and career have been “reconstructed” in the two autobiographies It’s my life And With music in my heart, become authentic best-sellers in just a few months. His last two publications I believe it And Between heaven and earth they tell of the strong and intense relationship with faith and spirituality.

In 2009 Al Bano returns for the fourteenth time to the Sanremo Festival with the song Love is always love.
