Ten years of career waiting to be celebrated for a year. Waiting, stillness, fear, worry, Emma before being an artist is a person who, like everyone else, has lived these months waiting to be able to start living again in a more peaceful world, without ever stopping. Judge a X Factor, a few days ago reconfirmed for the 2021 edition, actress for Gabriele Muccino, a song with Alessandra Amoroso that reached the stage of the Sanremo Festival, hours and hours in the recording studio, but in the background always the great desire to return live, not only for itself, but above all for its people, its workers.
She chooses to do so by renouncing large buildings in favor of locations that allow her to follow safety regulations, in order to allow her entire crew to start working again and to reunite with her audience, which she has been missing for too long. «The difficulty was not so much organizing the shows, but reconverting a show designed for sports halls into outdoor and much smaller places, choosing to bring the same number of people with me. I didn’t want to leave anyone at home. I wanted a great live and a great production to remain. I’m proud, no one is left at home, ”she says.
A disc is added to celebrate this milestone. Best of me comes out on June 25th and contains 21 songs, the most important to her, the most significant of her career, anticipated by What an incredible dream, with Loredana Berté. «An incredible dream is to sing with a rock icon like her, we have a mother-daughter relationship, visceral, human, direct, always. And finally this unreleased duet has arrived. We had so much fun”.
The great celebration starts on 6 and 7 June from the stage of the Verona Arena, after the zero date of 3 in Lignano Sabbiadoro, for a tour produced by Friends & Partners that will keep it busy until mid-July and which will see the youngsters of the latest edition of X Factor. “Having to explain to the public the dynamics of ticket conversion was complicated, but we did it and I thank all the people who will be present at the show”. Three cities are still to be recovered, Florence, Bari and Naples are missing, the public is asked for patience, not all cities have places suitable for the required rules, but the commitment is made.
We then leave with Verona where Emma announces special guests: Berté and Amoroso in the first place but also Dardust with whom Emma will pay homage to maestro Franco Battiato: «In the morning when the news of his death arrived, my heart broke into a thousand pieces. I had the same feeling when my friend Pino died (Daniele, ed). After so many years in this profession it seems to me that I had to struggle three times as many as many other artists. I have suffered criticism, prejudice, even unpleasant words from the press. Yet the people who really respected me were the greats of music, the ones that will last forever, when songs were called songs and not hits. Having their respect was the drive to believe in what I do. Every now and then he called me, greeted me, we talked about music. I will never forget the holiday at his home in Sicily. When he came to wake me up at five and I would say “master but it’s dark” and he “let’s go to the sea”. And I was going. Emma Marrone of Amici and Franco Battiato, talking for hours. What do they have to do together? Here is perhaps something to do with it. And it’s important for me to remember that».
It is as if he always had to prove to everyone that he is here because he deserved it, as if ten years of career, now eleven, he declared platinum, victories in Sanremo were not enough. “I have learned that I still have so many things to learn. Fortunately, I know I don’t know, and that’s why I have the opportunity to always go looking for something new. They call me courageous, I prefer consistent. I’m the one photographed for Bauli in the square in Rome, but I’m also here with my production, for a show with 60 people in tow. They are not just words ». She’s afraid to go on stage, “I’ve been trying to cry since this morning and I can’t, I need to cry. I don’t want to disappoint anyone. Especially my workers, who for years have held my hand making me feel the best artist in the world“. I will sing, he will dance. On stage with her five dancers choreographed by Macia del Prete in a show that can be watched for free on June 15th in streaming on the ITsArt platform. “Free because I owed it to all the people who could not come, considering the difficulties of this period”. Heart and wait, before the dress rehearsal. An incredible journey for her, which she can’t wait to start. “It is the restart of the live shows, it is a workers’ day“. All that remains is to celebrate it. See you in Verona.
