When he was seventeen, a music industry manager proposed a performance at the occasion of the Papal visit in Wroclaw, Poland. The song, which was half in Italian, half in Polish, had been written for the opening mass, and with 85,000 people in attendance, the exposure led to his first local record dealAngelo di Dio (1997). When his father died of cancer that year and Buanne himself suffered a perforated ulcer, he said, “It was music and the goal to make my family proud that kept me alive and made me strong” Patrizio. At nineteen, Buanne graduated from school in Vienna and moved back to Italy. He attended university in Rome to study languages, while looking for opportunities in the entertainment industry. He was a guest and entertainer on Italian television shows such as “Momenti di Gloria”, “Domenica In” and “Libero”.
