Rita Pavone: l’eterna Gian Burrasca | RSI Musica

From her dazzling debut to Gian Burrasca, from the Ed Sullivan Show to her marriage to Teddy Reno Rita Pavone turns 80 and it seems incredible: the energy and determination are the same as when, at just eighteen, she played the legendary Gian Burrasca. With the generosity that has always distinguished her, she opens up to Isabel Piazza, wrapped in the embrace of the Stelio Molo Auditorium in Lugano-Besso. Because the friendship between Rita Pavone and RSI is truly a long history. From her dazzling debut and her extraordinary stint on the Ed Sullivan Show, to her scandalous marriage to Ferruccio Merk Ricordi, aka Teddy Reno – now ninety – with whom she had her two beloved sons, Alessandro and Giorgio, to a career studded with successes and memorable achievements: let's discover two souls in one artist. La Pavone, capable of dominating the stage like few others, and Rita, the woman you might meet on a train, sitting next to you, and start a conversation with as if you'd been friends forever. Meeting Rita is a gift of strength and positivity, a gift that our best wishes for this special birthday will never be able to fully repay.
