Buona Notte is the second virtual choir project, this time with the University of the Philippines Concert Chorus 1996 and 1997 touring groups. This choirantine collaboration aimed to send our Italian friends and families some nurturing thoughts during this COVID-19 pandemic. During the UPCC world tours, Italian families hosted the touring members and have made close friendships that lasted through the years.
Buona Notte (Good Night) is an Italian lullaby from Friuli, northeastern region of Italy. Composer and/or arranger is not known as of this time.
