Il Volo’s Ignazio Boschetto stunned fans with a breathtaking performance of The Bodyguard classic “I Will Always Love You” at the Verona Arena. The Il Volo tenor delivered a thunderous and emotionally charged rendition of Whitney Houston’s signature ballad, leaving the audience in awe.
Dressed in an elegant suit, Boschetto showcased his soaring vocals, delivering each note with precision and passion. It’s not every day that a male singer takes on “I Will Always Love You”—a song so closely tied to Houston’s legacy—but Boschetto’s masterful performance proved he was up for the challenge.

Fans in attendance described the moment as “unforgettable,” with many taking to social media to express their admiration.
One YouTube commenter summed it up perfectly: “I never thought a man could sing this song with such power and emotion. Ignazio just changed my mind.” Another wrote, “This is the first time I’ve heard a male singer truly do this song justice. Absolutely stunning.”
Written by Dolly Parton in 1973, “I Will Always Love You” became a global sensation when Whitney Houston recorded her iconic version for The Bodyguard in 1992. The song, featured in the film starring Houston and Kevin Costner, became one of the best-selling singles of all time, forever cementing its place in music history.
For years, many believed only Houston could truly capture the song’s emotional depth and vocal intensity. But with his performance in Verona, Boschetto shattered expectations. His rich tenor voice, combined with the grand setting of the arena, brought a fresh yet faithful interpretation to the beloved classic.
