At our Spring,2010 concert we welcome as our guest artist, Cristina Fontanelli.  Ms. Fontanelli sang recently at the Columbus Citizen's Foundation in honor of Tony-award winning playwright Mario Fratti.  The event was right before the Oscars, at which Mario was recognized for his collaboration on the Academy Award nominated film "Nine."  Ms. Fontanelli, whose voice has been compared with that of the great Maria Callas, has become a well-known personality through her recordings, appearances on American and Italian radio and TV, concerts, and opera, as well as through her recent acting debut on network television, where she received rave reviews for her beautiful voice and versatjile talent.  Ms. Fontanelli, a native of Brooklyn, NY, attended the Juilliard School, and is a graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts.  For more information, visit www.cristinafontanelli.com
