Unless you are a fan, you may be wondering who is "Dondino"?  If you say, "Domzio Dondino Melchiorre" the chances are someone else will say, "Who?"

 

But shorten it to, "DONDINO" and the response is more likely to be, "Aahhh"

 

Dondino is a non-conformist; he plays and sings with humor and compassion!  And to top it all off, Dondino surrounds himself with talented musicians.

 

A newspaper poll conducted by Narter Marketing produced this astonishing information; the highest count reported by a couple who saw him perform over 2,700 times in showrooms and benefits throughout Nevada.  The most touching was the young man from Special Olympics who saw 10 shows.  Today Dondino is in the "Ripley's Believe It or Not" museum in Branson, MO., as the "Most Seen Entertainer".

 

Most of Dondino's career has been shaped by his involvement in humanitarian and civic responsibility.  He has been featured on the MDA Telethon, Variety, the Children's Charity, Speciial Olympics, Nite of Stars at Caeasar's Palace, St. Jude's Ranch for Children, The National Aids Concert in Palm Springs, and many other charity benefits, including his own foundation "Read To Me Foundation.
