Love, From Italy

Love, From Italy is the debut album of the Italian classical crossover vocal group Andiamo. It was released on April 3, 2007 in the United States.

The album is a collection of thirteen traditional and famous Italian tunes, many of them Canzone Napoletana. The songs are arranged in a popera style to give them a more contemporary feel. Although Love, From Italy is a studio album, Andiamo did not use any pre-recorded or computerized music while recording the CD; they simply used an orchestra and their voices. This was done so that the album would have a truly "live" sound.1

At it's peak, Love, From Italy reached number fourteen on Billboard's "Top Classical Crossover Albums" chart.2
