We did see this band perform at the Italian Festival in Reno Nev. Enjoyed seeing and listening to them very, very much!!!.....Everybody else there did also!!...They had people smiling and dancing in street! Had to buy their CD!! author: Scott PowellLike Larry, My wife and I see Bella Ciao at the Italian Festival in Reno. They are the main reason we go there every year. Also their latest album, Festivus Italiano is great! We put their albums on when we do housework and do more dancing then housework.

Saw you folks at Cotati, Outstanding music!! Bella Ciao is smooth,
professional, and fun. Your timing is incredible. Missed you at the Reno
Italian Festival, If I'd known you were going to be there, I would have been
there.
Jim Shelly October, 2005 I thoroughly enjoyed hearing "Bella Ciao" Sunday (October 9, 2005) at the El Dorado Cabaret. Remo Minato, Portland Italian Festival
You folks did an
outstanding job! The folks at the ACR (Accordion Club of the Redwoods) are far
from the toughest crowd you'll play for, BUT they don't "give away" standing
ovations. You folks EARNED those ovations. We all had a super time. Thank you
VERY much!! I heard you play on Sunday, June 5 (2005) and fell in love with your band! Renee D'Anna"From toe-tapping tarantella to the familiar musical interrogatory, 'Quando, Quando, Quando?' Bella Ciao's debut at Copia (Napa, CA) was well received by an enthusiastic crowd."-Pierce Carson, Napa Valley register 08/23/02 ** Read the whole review**
