The interview with the singer-songwriter Giovanni Caccamo is part of the “Word to young people” project: eight Italian excellences reflect on the theme of change and the future
The songwriter John Caccamo met eight young Italian excellences of the world of art, science, sport, music, dance and culture to reflect on themes of change and future. Each guest began by describing the key changes in their life and career and then answered the questions: «What would you change about the society in which you live and how? What is your word of change?».
Il collective project «Word to the young» for the drafting of Cultural Manifesto on #Changein collaboration with the Vatican Museums and the MAXXIis the continuum of Caccamo’s latest album «Parola», which collects the appeal of the writer Andrea Camilleri, aimed at young people, to start a new humanism of the word. In fact, each song on the album was inspired by a text of Italian, foreign or contemporary literature interpreted, as an introduction to each song, by precious travel companions: Willem Dafoe, Patti Smith, Liliana Segre and other incredible voices in a dialogue intergenerational.
The «Word to the young» project was born, after the publication of the album, from the awareness that in order to try to start a new humanism, the contribution of thousands of young people was needed. Thus two appeal questions were launched, to which thousands of young people replied in writing. Everyone has chosen a word of change and written a short treatise that summarizes the aspect of society that would change and the concrete ideas to be able to do so. The Manifesto will be published on May 11 by Treccani and will collect the sixty most beautiful texts among the thousands collected. Proceeds from the sale of the volume will be donated to the Andrea Bocelli Foundation in support of scholarships for young people in difficulty. Many important companies and names have collaborated in the realization of the project, including Banca Ifis (main partner), Pulsee Energy and Alessia Zanelli.
The protagonist of this interview is Laura Marzadori (Bologna, 1989), concertmaster of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, who chose the word “sincerity”. Laura is an elegant girl and in harmonious relationship with the world. Her interview leads into the world of classical music and dreams, technique and constancy, failure and victory. Her talent is light.
