"Musica leggerissima" is a song written and recorded by Italian singer-songwriters Colapesce and Dimartino. Produced by Federico Nardelli and Giordano Colombo, the song was released as a single and included in I mortali², the 2021 re-release of the duo's album I mortali, originally released in 2020. The song competed in the Sanremo Music Festival 2021, placing 4th in a field of 26.[1] It also received the "Lucio Dalla" Press, Radio, TV, & Web Award.[2]
Background[]
The song was written by Colapesce and Dimartino immediately after the release of their collaborative album I mortali, in June 2020.[3] Its composition took a long time, since they struggled with finding the words to create a song full of meaning, but still light and simple.[4]
In September 2020, they entered the studio and recorded the first demo of the song, working with producers Federico Nardelli and Giordano Colombo. After the song was chosen as one of the Sanremo Music Festival 2021 entries, they re-worked it with Adele Nigro, who recorded the song's background vocals, and violinst Davide Rossi. Following suggestions by the contest's artistic director Amadeus, the song's structure was also changed, removing an instrumental section.[3]
Music video[]
The music video for the song was directed by Salvo "Zavvo" Nicolosi.[5]
