Fosca – the novel by Iginio Ugo Tarchetti (with Michael Vecchio)

The story of Passion starts over a hundred years before the musical debuted on Broadway. In this episode Kyle talks with Michael Vecchio about what was going on in Italy at the time, the true story of the author, and why this story has persisted over the decades.

Michael Vecchio is co-host of the Italian radio program, Ciao Italia Edmonton, and a lover of history, and culture, and anything Italian. Also available on Soundcloud. On radio in Edmonton, Sunday mornings 8:30-11 AM, 101.7 FM
