Vinicio Capossela achieved success yesterday evening as he opened the third edition of the BarbablùFest in the archaeological area of Morgantina. The singer-songwriter brought an improvised setlist to the stage, including some songs from his latest album, “Tredici canzoni urgenti,” as well as old hits like “Che coss’è l’amor” and “Il ballo di San Vito.” He engaged the audience in dancing and singing along, filling the steps of the ancient amphitheater.

The BarbablùFest, a festival created in 2021 from the idea of Pietrangelo Buttafuoco and artistically directed by Giuseppe Dipasquale, with organization and production by Terzo Millennio, will run until August 5th.

The festival will conclude on Saturday, August 5th, with a performance by Stefano Bollani, “Piano Solo.”
