A tribute to a great and misunderstood talent of Italian songwriting, courtesy of his genetic and artistic heir: Filippo Graziani returns to Cagliari for "Ottanta. Buon Compleanno Ivan," the tribute tour in honor of the late musical genius and father (who is half Sardinian), which will make another stop tomorrow at the Teatro Massimo, starting at 9:00 PM.

Starting in Rimini in March of this year and traversing half the peninsula to bring his "traveling birthday party" in tribute to his father, even after the May finale in Ancona, the young Graziani announced a second round of dates, struck by the impressive turnout and affection shown by the audience, thus allowing other cities to relive what is truly a collective celebration of a great Italian voice. This is an activity that Filippo has been carrying on for over ten years, during which he has proven himself not just a performer but a performer of caliber, introducing new arrangements to enrich his father's songs.

From great hits to lesser-known songs, an intense and personal story unfolds, offering an authentic perspective on Ivan Graziani's world. This is thanks in part to the skill of the musicians who accompany him—his brother Tommy Graziani (drums), Francesco Cardelli (bass), Massimo Marches (guitars), Stefano Zambardino (keyboards), and Riccardo Cardelli (multi-instrumentalist)—and the never-before-seen installations by visual artist Marco Lodola, an integral part of the scenography.
