Il Volo’s Gianluca Ginoble gave fans a rare and emotional gift — a duet with his brother Ernesto that has quickly captured hearts around the world.
The brothers teamed up for a beautiful rendition of “Assenzio” on Smule, blending their voices in perfect harmony and proving that music truly runs in the Ginoble family.

The video shows Gianluca, best known for his rich baritone and soulful delivery, performing alongside Ernesto, whose tone carries a similar warmth and sincerity. Together, their voices create a touching performance that fans have called “pure magic.”
Comments poured in from around the world. One fan wrote, “Wow Gianluca, your dear brother can sing! Well done, guys — I love it.” Another added, “His brother is talented and handsome too. What a beautiful family.” Others simply called it “stunning,” “emotional,” and “a gift to the fans.”

For many, this duet was also a surprise — not everyone knew Gianluca had a brother who could sing. The moment revealed a personal side of the Il Volo star that fans rarely get to see. It was a reminder that beyond the glamour of international tours and TV performances, Gianluca’s love for music has deep roots in his home life and upbringing in Montepagano, Italy.

Gianluca has always spoken fondly of his family and how they’ve kept him grounded throughout Il Volo’s whirlwind journey to global fame. In interviews, he’s often said that staying connected to his roots gives his music meaning. “The happiness of turning my passion into my job fills my heart with joy,” he shared in one conversation. “It makes everything meaningful.”
Since forming Il Volo alongside Ignazio Boschetto and Piero Barone, Gianluca has performed on some of the world’s biggest stages, from Madison Square Garden to the Eurovision Song Contest. Yet, this intimate moment with his brother shows another side of him — not the global star, but the young man who still finds joy singing from home with family.

Fans are now hoping this won’t be the last time the Ginoble brothers perform together. As one admirer commented, “Two voices, one heart. Please give us more duets — your harmony is breathtaking.”
Whether on stage or at home, Gianluca continues to share not just his talent, but his heart — and this family duet is another reminder of why Il Volo fans love him so deeply.
