Hello Vale
Thank you for your incisive comments on Italian diction. What you describe as official Italian pronunciation would compare, I would think, with the generally accepted English that is used on most network radio and TV stations in the US.
We have many, many variations on our use of English depending on the part of the US one is from, or visiting. The variations seem infinite. But a rather common pronunciation has been developed for public use throughout the country that tends to be accepted by everyone. It is this form of US English that is taught in the voice studios and universities for singers and public speakers.
Please keep sharing your knowledge of your language on this forum.
