yes.. Berlusconi.. let's all play "Arrivadierci Roma" sometime today
Maybe he could get some help from the Democracy, Nature and Love party. I know I should be working on Summertime or my Crucianelli but this is too much fun! Well, the hands are improving but our beloved accordions still have a way to go.

I have perhaps an ignorant question, but who is this Silvio? The reason I ask is I have inherited from my grandfather an accordion and the name plate on it says Silvio Soprani. Is this a different Silvio? I have attached a couple images. Thanks so much for any information you can provide me.Love him or hate him, may he rest in peace. Here he is with our instrument, not his more famous consort..... As Ventura would say, ciao, or more addio....

Here he is:
And here:
Silvio Berlusconi, former Italian prime minister, has died at the age of 86
The 86-year-old ex-premier known for his "Bunga Bunga" sex parties has been one of the most controversial leaders of modern Italy.

I don't much care about his alleged sins: he had charisma in spades and stood out above the crowd.

Great showman and entertainer, but a terrible sheet-anchor on Italian culture and governance .
I was in Italy at the time watchng the country slide backwards.

By remarkable good fortune, Berlusconi escaped being prime minister during the COVID-19 epidemic and the ensuing fallout over the way Berlusconi's successors have since been accused of mishandling the emergency (although he did himself suffer a case of the virus).
