Born:
Cécile McLorin Salvant was born and raised in Miami, Florida of a French mother and a Haitian father. She started classical piano studies at 5, and began singing in the Miami Choral Society at 8.

I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu

Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...
