My Take
Lucio Dalla is one of those rare artists I consider a genuine national treasure, and Bologna should be proud of him. Singer, songwriter, pianist, clarinetist, and actor, his versatility almost seems unfair, but it is Caruso that seals his greatness for me, a tribute to the legendary tenor that became an immortal standard covered by singers worldwide. The honorary doctorate from Bologna and the Order of Merit show how deeply his city and country loved him. That he died just three days before his birthday lends his story a haunting symmetry, yet the songs endure, and that is the finest legacy an artist can leave.
