Rest in peace, wonderful Ornella. Your voice, your personality, your light, will never leave us. Unique.”\n\nThe Italian singer, Mahmood, with whom he released a new version of his song ‘Sant’allegria’ in 2024, released this Saturday a video hugging her after a joint performance, accompanied by the message: “Thank you for the love, the dinners, the teachings, and all the time you gave me during these years,” wrote the singer, “you will always remain in my memories, in my heart and in my eyes.”\n\nOthers like the rapper Marracash, one of the most popular in the country’s urban scene, limited himself to saying goodbye with a :”Goodbye, my friend”, while Vasco Rossi, one of the greats of Italian rock, thanked Vanoni “for her voice, her interpretation and her constant irony”.\n\nA symbol of Italian music and culture
Beyond music, Vanoni was a constant presence on television and in theater, and her participation in the Sanremo Festival, in which she appeared up to eight times, solidified her status as one of the most beloved and respected artists in the country.\n\nThe Sanremo presenter between 2020 and 2024, Amadeus, also shared his affection for the artist: “Extraordinary artist and special woman! It was a privilege to share so many beautiful, fun and unforgettable moments. We will all miss you very much. I love you, Ornella.”\n\nFor his part, the Minister of Culture, Alessandro Giuli, underscored Vanoni’s impact on the history of Italian art, calling her “one of the most original and refined artists” who has left a deep mark on Italian music, theater, and entertainment.\n\nThe artist’s chapel of rest will be installed in the Piccolo Teatro of Milan, the same place where, at only 18 years old, she began her artistic training and where she would begin a career of more than seven decades.\n\nThe public will be able to pay their respects on Sunday from 10:00 (9:00 GMT) to 14:00 (13:00 GMT) and on Monday from (9:00 GMT) to 13:00 (12:00 GMT), the Milan City Council reported this Saturday.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
