Azzurro

A travel guide without sights - 100 songs through Italy! For generations, no one in Germany has been able to escape the longing for Italy. The country beyond the Alps captivates, it shines and tastes - and it always sounds! "We Italians are sparrows and nightingales. Everyone sings with us," said the great Lucio Dalla, and there is no better key to understanding the country than music. Or at least no more beautiful one. Whether it's Mina, Ricchi e Poveri, or Adriano Celentano, the Canzone is a national cultural treasure: from Neapolitan songs to the annual summer hits, to Italo-Disco or the works of the Cantautori. Eric Pfeil takes us on a journey, bringing along 100 songs that bring us closer to a country, its history, and its most beautiful spots, inviting us to listen to them again and again. We drive with the top down along narrow coastal roads, wander through the streets of Naples, and stroll along the beach promenade of Rimini - and we are guaranteed to always have the right soundtrack in our ears.
