Carlo Aonzo is a worldwide known Italian mandolin performer, native of Savona (Italy) where he grew up immersed in music, since his home itself hosted the music school of the "Circolo Mandolinistico G. Verdi”.


Carlo Aonzo has used the COVID-19 lockdown isolation to produce a series of short documentaries linking the major Italian cities to the history of the Mandolin.

The first two episodes were about Genoa and Turin.
