Biography
Tenor Claudio Villa was born Claudio Pica in the Trastevere quarter of Rome in 1926. He recorded over 3000 songs, sold 45 million records, and appeared in 25 musicals during his career.
His parents gave him the name “Claudio“ in honor of Claudio Serio. Many songs made famous by Villa, like “’A Tazza ’E Cafe’,“ were recorded for the Fonit-Cetra company. On his grave (he died in 1987) are the words “Life, you are fine. Death, you stink“.
