Outline for Michael Bolton

The Vittoriale Amphitheatre sold-out. An Outline audio system for the only Italian date on the US artist’s world tour

Gardone Riviera (Brescia, Italy), 3^rd August 2010 – Michael Bolton, one of the last thirty years’ most popular pop-rock artists, definitely chose a breathtaking venue for the only Italian date on his world tour: the amphitheatre at the “Vittoriale degli Italiani” (Shrine of Italian Victories), which overlooks Lake Garda (the largest in Italy) and was Italian poet Gabriele d’Annunzio’s favourite place and his home until his death.

The US singer/songwriter – who has sold 53 million records, won six American Music Awards, two Grammys and even has a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame – will end an exceptional season in December, after holding no less than 110 concerts.

In Gardone Riviera, where Bolton presented his latest album, One world one love (released in September 2009), the Vittoriale’s amphitheatre was sold-out and an Outline audio system was used.

The local press commented: “A perfect performance that ended to triumphant applause and will remain in the hearts of a lot of people for a long time”.

Cipiesse Produzioni per lo Spettacolo was the Brescia rental company that supplied and installed the sound reinforcement system for Bolton’s show.

The main rig comprised 6+6 Outline Butterfly Hi-packs and 2+2 Mantas modules for down-fill (120°), hung below the main Butterfly arrays, as well as 5 Subtech 218, installed on the ground for the reproduction of infra-low frequencies. Five ultra-slim (self-powered) H.A.R.D. 115 SP monitors  were positioned on stage and  the set-up’s processors and power amps were also Outline.
