Roberto Vecchioni

The Professor returns to the Dolomites for a “lesson” in music and life

He’s a singer-songwriter, lyricist, writer and poet, but everyone knows him as “the professor”. “Luci a San Siro”, “Signor giudice”, “Ti insegnerò a volare” (sung with Francesco Guccini) “Samarcanda” and “Voglio una donna” are just a few of the many tracks by Roberto Vecchioni, an institution in the world of Italian song. As well as winning big awards such as the Premio Tenco and taking part in huge events like Sanremo and Festivalbar during a long musical career, he’s always also worked in education and as a writer. He taught Latin and Ancient Greek in secondary schools for more than 30 years and he continues to teach literature, music and communication at university. In addition, he has written novels such as “Le parole non le portano le cicogne” and poems such as those found in the collection entitled “Volevo. Ed erano voli”. In this latest appearance at I Suoni delle Dolomiti, Roberto Vecchioni will be accompanied by Lucio Fabbri on the violin and Massimo Germini on the acoustic guitar. They’ll perform near the Rifugio Micheluzzi, above Campitello di Fassa in Val Duròn. It’s a place that embodies the monumental spirit of the Dolomites, as well as their natural and geological treasures.
