With the social media project Le parole delle canzoni (Words from the songs), the Institute of the Italian Encyclopedia founded by Giovanni Treccani proposes to narrate the evolution of the Italian language through the texts of the new generation of musicians. Receiving extraordinary feedback on the project, Treccani kicked off a series of dialogue on Le parole delle canzoni, creating a talks format on socio-linguistic theme with musicians and writers. The format arrives for the first time at the Romaeuropa Festival LIVE in the splendid setting of Villa Medici.
For the second talk the extraordinary guest Mahmood (with his 16 platinum discs, 5 gold discs and over 400 million streaming among the most important exponents of the Italian urban pop songwriter) will be in dialogue with the writer Teresa Ciabatti (Sembrava Bellezza, Mondadori 2021) on the texts of his new album Ghettolimpo.
