"Vincenzo Manno completed music studies in 1970 at Oberlin College under the tutelage of Richard Miller[1] having previously studeied with John Shurtleff and Burton Garlinghouse while attending the Cleveland Music School Settlement and summer courses with Josephine Antoine at Chautauqua and Eleanor Steber at the Cleveland Institute of Music in Cleveland, Ohio. Thanks to a Fulbright fellowship, Manno continued his studies at Santa Cecilia in Rome with Maestro Gennaro D'Angelo and at Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan, with Maestro Ettore Campogalliani. His private studies in Milan continued with Dr. Otto Mueller. After Dr. Mueller's death, Manno was accepted into the private singing school directed by Professor Dennis Hall in Bern, Switzerland. Professor Hall remained Manno's voice teacher and mentor until Hall's death in 2004. His singing career embraced a wide repertory of baroque, traditional, and modern pieces. He performed with theatre companies in all parts of the world, and did radio performances primarily with European radio stations. He was a permanent member of the La Scala Opera House, in Milan and performed regularly there until his retirement in 2009. He is the recipient of several awards for his recordings, among them the "Grand Prix du Disque" for baroque music, recorded with Swiss conductor Maestro Edwin Loehrer, and the "Best Recording of the Year", from Grammophone Magazine, for his two-CD solo recording of tenor music of the 17th century, Strana Armonia d’Amore, with Maestro Roberto Gini. Because of his devotion to divulging culture in the world of music, on May 3, 2007, Vincenzo Manno was honoured with a tribute by the United States Congress, in occasion of the 40th Anniversary of his career."
