Italy/Colombia -- Tracks From Abroad Ep.79
For episode 79 of Tracks From Abroad we speak with Isabella Milano, a classical voice performance student in U of T's music department.
Isabella performed her original song, Up In the Air, at Youth Day this summer at Yonge and Dundas Square, and on this episode you will hear about how that project came together.
Isabella's family is Italian and Colombian, so we chatted about the kind of music she grew up listening to, code switching between Spanish and English, and her first trip to Colombia to visit her abuela.
The music on today's show is a mixture of Italian and Colombian tracks with lots of Canadian artists like Frank Moyo, Beny Esguerra, and Dia. Tune in to our show Mondays at 6pm on CIUT for episode 80 coming up next week!
