ROME, February 2, 2004

Dear Beppe,
What else can I say, after your Recital at the Sanctuary of the "Madonna del Divino Amore," but...MAGNIFICAT...MAGNIFICENT?


Bravo! With my wishes that your music will become more and more "holy sparkle" to the heart of men!

When I think of you, I see you again as a child in the little choir of the Cathedral in your hometown of Busseto,...then, later on, as a young guitarist with long hair and with your band coming to Piacenza for the opening of the "Casa della Giovane" ("The Home of the Youth") back in 1968...then I have followed your career in Italy and in America through your Mother who has been always updating me; then finally for the Great Jubilee to the year 2000 I had the pleasure to see you conducting your "Magnificat" at the "Sala Paolo VI" in the Vatican. What an emotion!

Today, after you have become a first class musician, successful in America as well, I see you like the "Cantore di Dio" (Kantor of God) in Italy and the entire world with a musical Repertoire, new on its genre, speaking through music to the heart of Man so he can meditate and pray...

What more can can I desire for you? I will always pray that the Holiest "Madonna del Divino Amore" will be with you forever , will smile at you and will inspire you with the most beautiful melodies that make the heart of Man sing.

Hail Mary! I embrace you with my prayer
Madre M. Luigia Aguzzi
