I Tre Tenori che dal Po Carcarono l'Oceano (ENG: The Three Tenors who Crossed the Ocean from the Po River)
In Italy, the Po River, the nation's longest, flows through the small provincial town of Piacenza on its journey to the sea. Between the early 20th century and the 1970s, the city's modest taverns gave birth to some of the world's most renowned tenors. Italo Cristalli, a former baker, shared stages with the legendary Enrico Caruso in New York City. Gianni Poggi, a child prodigy who once sold cheese in Piacenza's market, rose to prominence, singing alongside opera greats like Callas and Tebaldi at Milan's La Scala and New York's Metropolitan Opera. Flaviano Labò, the son of a railway worker, became a Verdi tenor of extraordinary talent, recognized worldwide for his powerful performances.
