In Napoli, unique photographs show life, people, the beauty and the inconsistencies in the city between Mt. Vesuvius and the sea. Music The music selection would not be complete without O Sole Mio, Torna a Surriento, and Funiculi Funicula. Names like Enrico Caruso, Beniamino Gigli, Francesco Albanese, and Renato Carosone speak for themselves.
