Buonasera a tutti ! Mi chiamo Alessandra Mastronardi, e sono stata scelta per animare questa seconda edizione di San Marino Festival ! Sei canzoni sono in gara ma solamente una potrà raggiungere gli altri partecipanti di Festival of Miracles 32 !
We are still shocked by the incredible flop of Aba last edition after she won with a quite big margin a tough selection where the song chosen by Italy for OGAN 23 didn't even make it to the Grand Final. We want to believe that this was just an incident. We worked on a short list of six songs this time, each one representing a different style of music: folk, ballad, metal, bossa nova (yes, and this song was not released in 1930), pop rock and dance.
We are going to discover the six entries, then you will be able to vote for your favourite (this song will get two points) and your second favourite (will get one point).
The firs contestant is Annalisa Pompeo (stage name: Alis Pompeo), born in 1987 in Aprilia (Lazio). She is not only a good singer, but also a great guitar player.
Then we have Alice Agus, a young Sardinian talent from Cagliari. She was 17 years old when she recorded this beautiful and powerful song.
Now we have Walk in Darkness, one of the two groups (with Kalidia) fronted by the charismatic singer Nicoletta Roselini (26 years old, from Lucca, Toscana). I don't know for her caress but her voice is really gentle!
Now we have the mysterious bossa nova entry. You probably never heard of Chiara Civello (42 years old, from Modica near Ragusa in Sicily, currently living in New York) but she is a very famous jazz singer. She even participated to Sanremo in 2012. She has the rare ability to make Italian sound like Portuguese when she sings a bossa nova song, and she already collaborated with major international artists like Chico Buarque.
The Shalalalas should not stay unknown a very long time, as their songs were chosen for the TV show L'allieva where I am playing. These two young talents are Alex Hare and Sara Cecchetto and they come from Roma.
And finally we have an association between three Italian DJ: Morris Corti, Eugenio LaMedica and Andry J. The merge between dance and rock is quite addictive.
We also like the reference to this epic music video...
