Paolo Conte, one of the most loved and appreciated authors of Italian music, will perform on the stage of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan. A unique and unmissable event, an extraordinary concert that has already sold out a few hours after going on sale. It is the first time that the artistic direction of the famous theater has chosen an Italian artist: a recognition of the great professionalism and charisma that Conte has conquered in Italy and abroad.
Paolo Conte
“I have performed in very important theaters such as the Chicago Philharmonic or the Berliner Auditorium, the great French theaters such as le Theater des Champs Elysees and Olympia, the Teatro San Carlo in Naples. However, La Scala represents something unique, precisely because it is the temple of opera and Italian opera is our great artistic heritage". Thus the great artist who signed some of the most famous songs of the Italian songwriter. The concert in the renowned Milanese theater is recognition of an incredible career, behind which there is no particular secret for the former lawyer. “Probably – comments the singer-songwriter – it is simple good self-respecting craftsmanship.” The live at Teatro alla Scala, realized in collaboration with Sugar Music, will be a tribute to the career of the voice of 'away with me', which will present a lineup specially designed for the occasion.
A tour with an extraordinary group of musicians
On stage, Conte will be accompanied by an orchestral ensemble of eleven musicians: Nunzio Barbieri (Guitar and Electric Guitar), Lucio Caliendo (Oboe, Bassoon, Percussion and Keyboards), Claudio Chiara (Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax, Flute, Accordion , Bass and Keyboards), Daniele Dall'Omo (Guitars).
