Castaldo's concerts fill the hearts of audiences with the spirit of the holidays. Accompanied by the Castaldo String Quartet, he performs classic Advent and Christmas carols from his chart-topping, best-selling album, "Extravergine: Christmas in the Mediterranean."
Castaldo is an award winning, Italian tenor, who sings in the style of Andrea Bocelli. When putting his voice to a particular melodic song, the results are nothing short of wondrous. Castaldo's rich operatic voice, strong but soft, is perfect in pitch and tempo and always on key. Castaldo, who studied music at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, has toured North America and Europe, including performances at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the Rainbow Room, Shea Stadium, Toronto's Queen Elizabeth Theatre, Italy's Teatro F. Cilea and Pescara Opera House. His passionate performances consistently thrill audiences with sweeping romanticism.
On November 4, Castaldo is releasing a new digital single, "O Come, O Come Emmanuel," a Christian Advent hymn, in English and Latin. He will perform his new release at all of his upcoming concerts. Castaldo's beautiful and monastic drone-inspired rendition of this holiday hymn embodies the Christmas spirit.
During the 2015 holiday season, Castaldo published his first Christmas Music Folio, entitled Extravergine: A Mediterranean Christmas Folio (in Italian, Natale nel Mediterraneo) which offers sacred, liturgical Christmas carols in Italian and Latin in lead sheet form. Both the CD and music song book will be available at all of his concerts and are also available on Amazon and other online music retail outlets.
