Rome, October 9 (askanews) – Claudio Baglioni retraces the origins and future of "Che notte è questa!", a week of concerts he will headline in Rome. Announced as a surprise two months ago, the event immediately sparked tremendous interest and a rush to be there and, once again, to be a key figure. Seven events, seven nights of celebration, emotion, and memory. Seven extraordinary concerts that – on October 24, 25, 27, 28, 30, 31, and November 1, 2026 – will enliven the Piazza di Siena ring and its magical and magnificent surroundings. This is where the “Grandtour LaVitaÈAdesso” begins, an artistic, cultural, educational, and recreational itinerary that, in the summer of 2027, will cross the most evocative contexts of the Italian territory and among the most famous sites of beauty. Piazza di Siena, a unique setting in the world, returns to the center of music and becomes the space for another chapter in Claudio Baglioni's career. Rome – the city where so many events of his experience as a musician, performer, and composer took place and which have attracted collective attention and support – could only be the place chosen to write this new page. The monumental area in the green heart of the Eternal City, Villa Borghese, in addition to being one of the One of the capital's most iconic locations, with a universal history and appeal, holds a strong symbolic and sentimental value for the artist. On October 24, 1982, 44 years ago, the legendary ALÉ-OÒ took place here, the first gigantic gathering in the history of live music in Italy, capable of bringing together an ocean of crowds.
That extraordinary event marked the grand finale of the first Italian tour to bring music to large outdoor spaces, transforming the concert into a great ritual of community, participation, energy, creativity, and emotion. The first of the seven dates of Che notte è questa! la Partenza will coincide with the day of that event in 1982, which has forever entered the collective imagination. The seven special nights of Che notte è questa! la Partenza will ideally represent a common thread between past and present, celebrating the 1982 concert, which drew an audience of 250.000.
An opportunity to relive events that still resonate through time and bring them back to the public, after nearly half a century, right where they were imagined and created. Accompanied by 20 formidable musicians and a team of top-notch professionals, Claudio Baglioni will perform 40 songs, arranged and illustrated for the show, which recount nearly sixty years of his artistic career.
