Story & Background
"L'Alba di Lucio" is a project with much deeper roots than one might imagine, long before its surprising release in 2026. The idea of uniting the sensibilities of Lucio Dalla and Lucio Battisti, despite being so stylistically distant, germinated in the 1970s, when both frequented the RCA studios. There is an urban legend, now partially confirmed by discoveries in the Sony archives, which tells of an informal session in which the two, almost playfully, improvised a brief musical fragment, perhaps a melodic sketch, on a rainy Roman afternoon. That raw recording, long considered lost or merely a myth among industry insiders, was recovered and, through meticulous restoration work and posthumous orchestration, gave rise to this concept album. "L'Alba di Lucio" is not just a compilation, but an audacious attempt to imagine the dialogue that could have existed between two giants, culminating in tracks that blend their unique atmospheres, a true "sogno realizzato" decades later, made possible thanks to technology and the veneration for their genius. The track that gives the album its title, in particular, is said to contain those first improvised notes, a small seed from which an entire work has blossomed.
