Named after his and his partner, Aleksandra Kurzak’s 2 1/2 year-old daughter, Malèna, the collection features mainstream and popular classical hits, as well as brand-new songs – for example, the title track, written especially for Alagna by his brothers, David and Frederico.

Key tracks include O SOLE MIO, FUNICULI FUNICULA, TORNA A SURRIENTO, and CORE ‘ GRATO - all in brand new arrangements, offering something different and unique for the classic “Italian Songbook” repertoire.

Joining Alagna on key tracks are DG label-mates, Avi Avital (mandolin) and Nemanja Radulović (violin).
