On Sunday 26 April at 6.00 pm, TV Sorrisi e Canzoni, the leading brand in entertainment media, will offer FuoriSalone audiences an exclusive event with Riccardo Cocciante as part of the INTERNI Materiae exhibition-event.

The special “Parole in musica” (Words in Music) event will take place on the stage of the Aula Magna at the University of Milan (Via Festa del Perdono 7). It promises to be an unmissable opportunity for Milan Design Week visitors and enthusiasts to attend a live conversation with one of the most beloved artists on the Italian and French music scenes. Admission is free, subject to availability.

Riccardo Cocciante, a timeless artist and internationally renowned composer, will join Aldo Vitali, Editor-in-Chief of TV Sorrisi e Canzoni, to discuss his new album “Ho vent’anni con te”, released on 13 March, the relaunch of the tour of the celebrated popular opera Notre Dame de Paris, and a forthcoming series of concerts that will see him perform from June in some of Italy’s most evocative venues.

Cocciante will also perform live for the audience, singing some of his best-known songs, including “Margherita”, the iconic track now celebrating its 50^th anniversary.
