A life of passions

Bartoletti is also a music critic and one of the greatest experts of "Sanremo Festival". His competence in the musical field has allowed him to be part, on several occasions, of the commission that selects the songs, as well as to be among the jurors of the most awaited singing event by the Italians. That for music is a passion inherited from his father, who played in the Città di Forlì band, and mixes with the other numerous interests that are part of his life. A life lived intensely and with love. Love for writing, reading, football, motors, cycling. Love for all that is knowledge and culture.
