Diodato, one of the most appreciated and award winning artists of Italian music, was awarded the Telegatto, the popular recognition of the entertainment world,  from TV Sorrisi e Canzoni.

The special showcase – presented as the final event of Design Week – took place on Sunday, April 23, in the fully packed Aula Magna Hall of the University of Studies of Milan, together with “Design Re-Evolution’s” interior decoration exhibition-event, which was open to the public since April 26.

The Telegatto was awarded to Diodato by Tv Sorrisi e Canzoni’s Director, Aldo Vitali, to celebrate the “first 10 years of its recording début: years of very successful, original and heartfelt music and for the incredibly strong emotions conveyed by the “Fai Rumore” song which turned into a ‘never give up’ motto for many.”

The singer-songwriter – with his four unreleased albums under his belt – performed in a special showcase, singing some of his most popular songs to TV Sorrisi e Canzoni’s audience, including Adesso, Fai Rumore, Che vita meravigliosa and two new songs taken from the “Così Speciale” album: Così speciale and Occhiali da sole.
