A German-born opera singer is spreading his love for classical music with the masses by bursting into song from his table to the surprise of all guests while dining in different restaurants with his manager.

Ricardo Marinello, 34, was born and raised in Düsseldorf, Germany, by a Sicilian father and a German mother. He was the celebrated winner of Germany’s Got Talent in 2007, after which he studied singing at the Robert Schumann Hochschule in Düsseldorf, where he lives today.

“It was my manager’s idea to break into song in restaurants and capture real emotions,” Marinello told The Epoch Times after a clip of the tenor singing “La Donna è Mobile” by Giuseppe Verdi, at a restaurant called Rossi in Würselen, went viral.
