Through the Sergio Franchi Music Foundation, "Connecticut Got Talent".

The Sergio Franchi Memorial Concert has been named one of "New England's most loved musical events" with over 4000 expected attendees on the 250 acre Sergio Franchi Estate, surrounded by ancient stone walls and it's 100 year old maple trees keep this day a setting of a social garden party, and the social "place to be" for it's faithful followers. Most eagerly spread out their carefully planned and prepared picnics, respecting Mrs. Franchi's only special request, that of her romantic vision and requests the dress code stay "Country Elegant".

Today's most talented young Tenors and Sopranos will be accompanied by a 42 piece symphony orchestra conducted by New York City Opera Company's conductor, Mistro Jeff Domoto. Through their magical voices, they will transform your hearts and lift your spirits to the world that only Classical Music, Romantic Love Songs and the most loved Operatic Arias could do....the very music that Sergio Franchi was known for.

This year's concert will be the most star studded ever! This year, we are featuring:
  • International heartthrob Alfio, with his voice of passion
  • Tuscan born, Georgia Fumanti, a Soprano who recently performed with the world famous tenor Jose Carreras.
  • Greek Tenor, Mario Frangoulis, who recently concluded a concert for 40,000 attendees that ended in a thundering standing ovation.
  • Last but not least, the Three Red Neck Tenors, directly from Las Vegas, the International Capital for entertainment, Luxor Hotel headliners. The three are Mathew Lord, John Wilkerson, and Alex Bumpas.

Before the concert starts, you will be able to tour the estate and see all that it has to offer, such as his memorial chapel, his memorial museum, and the inside of Sergio's home.

This event will again be hosted by Eva Franchi, who always manages to bring a lot of humor into the performance.

Food and beverages will be available for purchase.
