The live performance of "O Generosa!" by composer and pianist Giovanni Allevi.
Coro dell’Opera di Parma
Orchestra Sinfonica Italiana
Conductor: Giovanni Allevi
"When I was asked to compose the Italian football anthem, I immediately thought: "But I don't know how to play football!" Then I remembered the brief moments of my adolescence, spent in the dusty pitch of the parish, when with great joy I played football with my friends. The structure of "O Generosa!" it is that of the Renaissance madrigal for Chorus and Orchestra, but the rhythm is contemporary. I personally wrote the text in Latin (the eternal language) and in English (the international language) to communicate the importance of facing the sporting gesture and life, animated by a noble, pure and honest strength."
