Vico Torriani (1920-1998) was one of the best-known pop singers and entertainers in Switzerland. Italian opera and especially the works of Giuseppi Verdi and Giacomo Puccini inspired his art.<\/p>\n
Torriani grew up in St. Moritz. In 1945 he won a talent competition, which was followed by engagements throughout Europe. In the 1950s and 1960s he appeared mainly in music films, operettas and musicals. From the 1970s, the trained chef shone on TV shows by singing and presenting his cooking skills.<\/p>\n
Even if Vico Torriani was always on stage as a pop singer, his role models were Italian opera and the most famous Italian composer for salon songs, Francesco Paolo Tosti. In a conversation with Torriani's daughter, Nicole K\u00fcndig, these lesser-known preferences of the singer and show host Vico Torriani are examined.<\/p>\n
