I'm close to you 65/66″On air on Canale21 Friday 19 March at 21pm

PAD: Pino at a distance with Francesco Baccini, Eugenio Bennato, The Garden of Simples, Mario Biondi, Roberto Colella, Nello Daniele, Maurizio de Giovanni, Tullio De Piscopo, Ebbanesis, Tony Esposito, Eugenio Finardi, Pietra Montecorvino, Bobby Solo, Fabrizio Sotti.

Double edition for the memorial “Je sto vicino a te” dedicated to Pino Daniele, which, last year, the public and artist friends had to give up due to Covid-19: the 65 years of Nero a metà, together with his name day, were not celebrated. So let's combine the two years in this 2021 in the only way we can, in PAD mode, that is, Pino Daniele A Distanza. Without an audience, without guests or, better yet, with an audience and guests at a distance.

Friday, March 19, at 21:65 p.m., “Je sto vicino a te 66/21” will be broadcast on Canale XNUMX. With Nello Daniele, protagonist as always on the stage of the Teatro Palapartenope of the event dedicated to his brother, the artistic director Federico Vacalebre has invited to sing and play again the songbook of Lazzaro Felice: Mario Biondi, Eugenio Bennato, Bobby Solo, Pietra Montecorvino, Eugenio Finardi, the Ebbanesis, Francesco Baccini, Roberto Colella, the Giardino dei Semplici, the young Cristina Cafiero. So close, so far, each of them has recorded on video their own Pino Daniele performances.

There will also be, always in PAD mode, two pillars of the supergroup of “Vai mo'”: Tullio De Piscopo and Tony Esposito, who, with their participation, will also remember the 40 years of the concert of September 19, 1981 in Piazza del Plebiscito. And there will be the writer Maurizio de Giovanni, who wanted “Maggio se ne va” in the soundtrack of the successful series “Il commissario Ricciardi”. Homage also from America, with Fabrizio Sotti who is about to publish a “Pino Daniele tribute” with Peter Erskine and Rachel Z, who were alongside the singer-songwriter from New York live and on record.

In an evening strongly desired by Rino Manna, patron of the Palapartenope, the last home of Nero a Metà, Gianni Simeoli and Noemi Gherrero.

"I am truly happy to be on this stage for a special initiative, to honor a rare artist like Pino Daniele who we will never stop remembering - said Gherrero - it is important to make ourselves heard even in such a difficult moment so that the memory does not fade. Today more than ever it is necessary to create and take part in events of this kind and the possibility of presenting artists of this caliber, also alongside people I particularly respect such as Gianni Simeoli, Nello Daniele and Federico Vacalebre is truly an honor for me", concluded the actress and presenter.

“Happy birthday Pino! At 65 we hadn't forgotten about you, at 66 the wishes are double. But at 67 we will meet again here, the day is always the same - March 19, 2022 - like the place - the Palapartenope - and the songs and the spirit that we carry inside: a way to tell you we are close to you, to ask you to stay close to us. No Pad, however, next year: everyone in attendance, gathered like once, at your concerts that we carry in our hearts”. (Nello Daniele).
