The book “Il mio amico Lucio Battisti” or “My friend Lucio Battisti”, is being released in Italy and is likely to be an important manuscript in Italian literature on music.
The book has been written by Claudio Sabelli Fioretti and Giorgio Lauro, and is a kind of long interview with, or biography of, Mogol.
Mogol is the art name of Italian lyricist Giulio Rapetti, who has written many unforgettable songs.
While many texts exist on singer song-writer Poggio Bustone, this is the first on Mogol, and promises an intimate look at Battisti.
His life will be examined, and the dynamics of how many masterpieces of light music were created are revealed.
“Il mio amico Lucio Battisti” also promises to look at some of the more vexed questions from many fans, even today.
For example: is it true that underneath Mogol and Battisti were really fascists? And why did they separate at the end of Battisti’s career? What happened on their famous journey on horseback? And what is the true story of Cet, the famous music school where their destinies collided?“We discover only through living”, Battisti and Mogol would say.
