I am going to dedicate my today’s post to Italian singer, composer, comedian, actor, film director and TV host Adriano Celentano.

Celentano is one of the most successful and influential artists in the history of Italian music!

Adriano Celentano was born  on January 6th, 1938 in Milan, Italy.

Career

Adriano was 12 year old when he started working as an apprentice. And who knows, he would probably continueв  this profession unless he would perform with a parody in a community theatre.

1966 was a turning point in Celentano’s work. His song “The boy from Gluck street” became so popular that even has been translated into 22 languages, more than 4 months was in the top of Italian charts.

Adriano has released forty albums, three live albums, and eight compilations.

In addition to musical career, Celentano shoots in the cinema. In the 70s, he often appeared in films and made his own ones. He starred in forty movies. One of which is a popular movie by Federico Fellini “La Dolce Vita“.

At this moment Adriano Celentano lives 100 km away from Milan, in the villa with his wife Claudia and repairs the watches as he dreamed about it in the childhood.
