Story & Background

The genesis of the song "Caruso", the unsurpassed cornerstone of this epochal live album, is rooted in a deeply touching experience. In 1985, in Sorrento, Lucio Dalla stayed in the same suite at the Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria where Enrico Caruso died in 1921. The owner recounted to him the tenor's last days: the illness, his love for a young student and the heartbreaking desire to sing one last time as his voice abandoned him. Inspired by this story steeped in melancholy and grandeur, Dalla composed the song on a simple piece of paper. This melody became the emotional core of the album 'DallAmeriCaruso', recorded live during his American tour in 1986, ensuring its planetary and immortal success from its original release.
