Music With a Golden Heart

As an artist, I believe that music should not only touch hearts - it should also uplift lives.

The idea for my mini album Cuore dOro (Golden Heart) was born after watching Vito Coppola and Ellie Goldstein perform to the song Golden on Strictly Come Dancing. Their connection, kindness, and compassion deeply moved me. It wasnt just about their dance - it was about the humanity behind it: the patience, encouragement, and joy that Vito brought to every rehearsal and performance.

That golden-hearted spirit reminded me that what we all truly need in life is someone who lifts us up - someone who believes in us. Inspired by that thought, I wrote Cuore dOro (Golden Heart) in both English and Italian, and decided to include my song Birdy & Fishy (Friends Can Fly and Swim) as a bonus track - a story I originally wrote back in 2017, available as an illustrated book in English, German, Italian, and Spanish.

Both songs share one timeless message - kindness, compassion, and connection.

When I reflected on the meaning behind these creations, I realized that Golden Heart is the perfect extension of my Lily4Humanity project, which already supports CBM (Christian Blind Mission) and Smile Train - two charities that bring hope, healing, and dignity to those in need.

And because Cuore dOro and Birdy & Fishy were inspired by real acts of inclusion and empathy, I decided to extend my circle of giving by supporting two more organizations that represent those same values:

Dynamo Camp (Italy)
A non-profit organization offering therapeutic recreation programs for children with serious or chronic illnesses, giving them the chance to have fun, build confidence, and simply be kids again-all free of charge.(You can donate directly to Dynamo Camp here: www.dynamocamp.org)
