Nicolò Fabi wins A song for Amnesty 2020 @ Voci per la Libertà with his song "Io sono l'altro"

In 2013 the singer, song writer & guitarist Nicolò Fabi won the most prestigious Italian music&lyrics Award  "Premio Tenco" with his album entitled "Ecco". 

In the year 2012 he has been guest star at Voices for Freedom - Amnesty International Italia. Now it's the turn of his victory at the same Festival/Contest & event.  

There is now another new important recognition for this artist, class 1968, University degree in Romance Philology who approached the study of music since the age of 3 thanks to his grandmother who was a pianist.

Nicolò Fabi has been prized the absolute winner of the Stars Session (Famous Artists) of the Festival "Una canzone per Amnesty - Voci per la Libertà" 2020, 23rd edition which took place from July 31 to August 2 in the outside Esplanade of the Congress Centre in Rosolina Mare - (RO, Italy). 

The reason is to be found in the lyrics of his song "Io sono l'altro" (I am the other one) which deepened in the topic carried out by the Association VxL on Human Rights, this time considering "the other" not necessarily different for his social, ethnic, religious, politic diversity but from being, reasoning, behaving differently from ourselves. As we should love differences, diversity is not the same concept. Diversity can rather be found in selfish behaviours, in the absence of confrontation, in the lack of sharing, in the incapability to listen & learn, in the blindness in front of the needs of other people, prevarication always under the flag of the well known quotation "Mors tua vita mea". 

The other is someone "either" than myself who, at the very end, could be just me seen by someone else or from another perspective...In other words: I am the other one, who thinks differently from you. But what you see is just my clothes. Then let's wear them, go around and you will see how if feels…

We have recorded the video of his song live on the spot,fading in also some stage photos of this musician, taken in different moments of his performance which can be considered a generous half a concert.

The magic intense atmospheres Fabi can create when he performs live, have been well beyond our expectations. His moods, harmonics & style totally merged in the meaning of what he sings, his voice, his so touching lyrics moved the whole audience and many broke into tears while he was performing some songs of his repertory. 

We personally think Fabi is even more appreciable live than in studio recordings... What he gives & lends in acoustic live, unplugged & solo with just his guitar, is an amazing experience, very strong and moving...

For this reason with pure passion we have been engaging most of the time as independent photoreporters at this festival in recording the videos of his performances and shooting him. 

More is yet to come and will be published in our Youtube channels. All our videos are NOT monetized & shared with the public for no-profit for the passion we have to scout or promote quality music and to sensibilize people to some important nowadays topics though music, especially when it applies to Human Rights.
