Also Music Performances by Canadian Artists

Angelica Di Castro began captivating audiences with her powerful and unique voice performing in theatres across the U.S and Canada.  Throughout her career, she has released three successful albums with songwriting credits from renowned songwriter/producer David Foster. The mix of heartfelt ballads offered a hint of the style she would evoke as her career evolved. Angelica’s musical style represents the influence of crooner-era style with contemporary polish, charm and sharp production.

Angelica recorded "Raggio Di Sole", Radio Maria Canada's Italian Theme Song
