Il Volo’s Ignazio Boschetto transformed the live performance of ABBA’s “The Winner Takes It All” into a musical spectacle, hitting notes so high and sustained that audience members were left in awe.
The long, soaring finale elicited jaw-dropping reactions, cementing Boschetto’s reputation as one of the most powerful voices in contemporary Italian music. Fans online praised his performance, calling it “pure magic,” “goosebump-inducing,” and “a gift to behold,” with many highlighting the emotional depth he brought to the classic hit.
The performance took place in Mantua on May 19, 2025, during the first part of Il Volo’s Tutti per Uno: Viaggio nel Tempo, broadcast by Canale 5.
Boschetto’s rendition was widely celebrated, with social media viewers applauding not only his technical skill but also the heartfelt emotion that shone through every note. Admirers from around the world flooded comments with admiration, emphasizing his extraordinary talent and the powerful connection he creates with audiences.
Looking ahead, Il Volo is set to return to Brazil in March 2026 for a four-show tour. Following the success of their 2025 Live In Concert tour, which sold out across the country, the trio—Piero Barone, Ignazio Boschetto, and Gianluca Ginoble—will bring their signature harmonies and contemporary takes on Italian classics to Brazilian audiences once again.
The tour kicks off in Curitiba at Teatro Positivo on March 17, followed by three consecutive nights in São Paulo on March 19, 20, and 21 at Vibra São Paulo. The shows will feature the trio accompanied by a live orchestra and will include both international hits and tracks from their latest album, Ad Astra.
Since gaining international recognition after winning the Sanremo Festival in 2015 with “Grande Amore,” Il Volo has continued to captivate fans worldwide with their unique blend of contemporary and classical Italian music. Boschetto’s performance of “The Winner Takes It All” is a testament to the trio’s ability to bring emotion, technical mastery, and star-quality stage presence to every song.
With their upcoming Brazil tour and ongoing global acclaim, Il Volo—and Ignazio Boschetto in particular—remain at the forefront of modern operatic pop, delighting audiences with each unforgettable performance.
