We attended the first evening of the Sanremo 2021 Festival. The Italian Song Festival went on stage with an unusual appearance, without an audience and with flowers offered on a trolley in compliance with the anti Covid rules. Amadeus, the artistic director of the festival began by welcoming the audience from home and saying that "normality is a wonderful thing". It certainly doesn't have to be easy to do Sanremo without an audience ma Fiorello, after having performed singing "Thanks for the flowers", wrapped in a heavy cloak of flowers, he immediately made fun of him, turning to the armchairs as if the audience were there and continued to do so throughout the evening.
The new proposals sing
The singing competition began with the performance of the new proposals. The first four young singers who performed were:
- Gaudian with Gunpowder
- Elena Beggi with What do I know
