“It was the first, authentic, beautiful, soundtrack of the Sixty-eight, his songs ‘Contessa’ and ‘Vale Giulia’ were sung at the top of his throat in all the processions, during demonstrations and occupations: his disappearance will never cancel the wonderful memories I have of Paolo Pietrangeli “. This is what the leader of ’68 Mario Capanna said to AdnKronos, learning of the death today of the Roman singer-songwriter, at the age of 76, “my same age …”, he observes. “Hearing him talk and discussing politics was as extraordinary as listening to his songs – underlines Capanna – We met closely, frequented several times, we liked to exchange ideas about the past, the present and the future: he was gifted with a fine intelligence”. Rereading the text of ‘Contessa’, today, someone might be a little perplexed by some explicit exhortation to violence, to rebellion even in the streets … “Of course, I admit that some expressions today could appear a little drastic – he observes – But in that climate they were perfectly fitting and true. The fact of remembering that text of his still today gives the idea of its historical depth, both political and social and cultural. After all – concludes Mario Capanna – he was always a master of himself, precisely because he was a person without bosses “. (by Enzo Bonaiuto)
