Quando Verrà Natale
''Quando verrà Natale'' is a music album by Italian singer-songwriter Antonello Venditti. It was released by RCA Music, RCA Italia in 1974. The most famous song in the album is "A Cristo" ("To Christ"), an ironical depiction of a modern Jesus straggling amongst the 1970s society: after performing this song in a show with Francesco de Gregori and Riccardo Cocciante, Venditti was arrested (15 January 1974) under the accusation of offence to religion. He was later acquitted from any charge. Later he wrote the song "Campo de' Fiori", also in the album, dedicated to a square in Rome where the philosopher Giordano Bruno was burnt alive under the accusation of heresy, and taken as a symbol of freedom of thought. Also devoted to a square in Rome is "Piazzale degli Eroi", alluding to the rich and post-fascist bourgeoisie living in that area.

Antonello Venditti
Antonio "Antonello" Venditti (born 8 March 1949) is an Italian singer-songwriter and pianist who became famous in the 1970s for the social themes of his songs. Biography Antonello Venditti was born in Rome, the son of Vincenzino Italo Venditti from Campolieto, in Molise, deputy-prefect in Rome, and Wanda Sicardi. He studied piano in his youth and made his debut in the music world in the early 1970s at the Folkstudio of Rome, together with singers like Francesco De Gregori and Giorgio Lo Cascio. In duo with the former he released in 1972 his first LP, ''Theorius Campus''. The LP scored little success, but Venditti at least made himself noted for the strength of his vocal qualities and for his attention to social issues, evidenced by pieces like "Sora Rosa", sung in Roman dialect. Also in dialect was "Roma Capoccia", a declaration of love for his city, which later became one of his most famous songs. Curiously, Venditti refused to sing it for several years, as he considered it not ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Antonello Venditti Albums
Antonello da Messina, properly Antonello di Giovanni di Antonio, but also called Antonello degli Antoni and Anglicized as Anthony of Messina ( 1430February 1479), was an Italian painter from Messina, active during the Early Italian Renaissance. His work shows strong influences from Early Netherlandish painting, although there is no documentary evidence that he ever travelled beyond Italy. Giorgio Vasari credited him with the introduction of oil painting into Italy, although this is now disputed. Unusually for a southern Italian artist of the Renaissance, his work proved influential on painters in northern Italy, especially in Venice. Biography Early life and training Antonello was born at Messina around 1429–1431, to Garita (Margherita) and Giovanni de Antonio Mazonus, a sculptor who trained him early on. He and his family resided in the Sicofanti district of the city. Antonello is thought to have apprenticed in Rome before going to Naples, where Netherlandish painting was t ...
