The lightness of a hummingbird’s flight, the magic of bows, the poetry of words. The return of Cesare Cremonini confirms the role of poet of emotions of the Bolognese singer-songwriter: on December 1st, “Colibrì” is released, the first extracted from the new album, the seventh in the studio, “The girl of the future”, to be released on February 25. ” The cover image of “The girl of the future” represents for me a new concept of man and nature. It is in childhood, in the ability of the youngest to see a new world, in the purity of the feelings expressed in nature, that I found the inspiration for the whole new project “, explains the artist. An intimate, delicate piece that reaffirms the artistic freedom and the quality of Cremonini’s music, in a continuous challenge to the song form, between profound songwriting and more modern pop sounds. “Colibrì speaks of the adversity of a prophecy – says Cesare -. In this sense, for me, it is a science fiction work more than a song about current events, a musical experience linked to the entire album, more than a simple hit. It expresses itself with a polite and imaginative language because it is in the gentleness of the poem that I identify my idea of the future. For this reason I have chosen Colibrì as the entrance door to the new project. My first page of a journey into tomorrow that begins today. “The image of the small bird, which in many cultures represents love for life, courage and perseverance, accompanies the voice of the artist in the song, giving life verses that describe a girl, a symbol of virginity and rediscovered purity, who reaches a metropolis of the present guided by her flight. The same flight in which the listener is involved, as in an inner journey into a universe made of purity, nature and freedom. “In the song I do not explain what happened as a reporter would do, but what I felt as imminent – adds Cremonini, who wrote the piece with Davide Petrella and produced it with the faithful Alessandro Magnanini -. I interpret the feeling that sees us all waiting for something, for a signal, for a stroke of luck. This song expresses the same religiosity that accompanies any birth. A mystery of waiting for me sacred and inexplicable which, however, is the only answer that can be given to the excessive power of machines and technology “. And he tells how the lockdown played a role in his work:” During the worst months of the pandemic I deeply felt that the songs that are written and listened to today have a very specific, more important role. As has always happened, music has the power to herald transformations. When we talk about the future in the songs we begin to keep the thread of time together and escape fragmentation. “The song was recorded in Bologna, Los Angeles and London. The strings were arranged by Nick Ingman, and embellished by the intervention of Davide Rossi. , and were recorded in the Abbey Road studios in London. “I believe more and more in artistic collaborations between different experiences, including human ones, but I prefer musical ones to singing ones. I think that to find a common idea of society we too, artists of pop music, which for me is one of the most powerful forms of communication of our times, it is useful to combine different musical styles and ideas. “Colibrì” was born when I started to imagine the beauty and freedom, which today seems to be missing but which is certainly there in my mind. “Cesare Cremonini will be back live next summer with Cremonini Stadi 2022. The go-ahead from Lignano on 9 June, then Milan, Turin, Padua, Florence, Bari, Roma and on 2 July Imola at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari.
