Ya seriously gotta wonder what kind of genetics are at hand when so many members of the same family rise to the top of their chosen creative professions!

Clip on the family connections. The second segment contains a frame with a pic of Nic´s dad I had never seen. The resemblance is striking. I think the kid on his lap is not Nic, but his brother Chris... not sure.
They neglected to mention that Nic´s grandad, Carmine, wasn´t the only succesful musician in the family. His brother Anton is still working as a classical music conductor and composer (he´s the author of the opera Sacco and Vanzetti, and also of some pieces of Francisc Ford Coppola´s Dracula OST). His offspring still live in NYC, one of them is a nun in Brooklyn well know for her social work in the community.
