Musical artist

Ornella Vanoni (Italian pronunciation:[orˈnɛllavaˈnoːni]; 22 September 1934 – 21 November 2025) was an Italian singer and songwriter. With a career spanning almost seventy years, she was one of Italy's longest-standing musical artists. During her long career, she released about121 works between LPs, EPs and greatest hits albums, and sold over 65 million records, being considered one of the most popular performers ofItalian pop music.[2]

Artistic career

[edit]

Vanoni started her artistic career in 1960 as a theatre actress. She mostly performed inBertolt Brecht works, under the direction ofGiorgio Strehler at hisPiccolo Teatro in her native city ofMilan. At the same time, she started a music career. The folklore and popular songs she explored in her early records, especially the ones about the criminal underworld in Milan (Canzoni della Mala), resulted in her receiving the nicknamecantante della mala ("Underworld Singer") for singingMilanese dialect songs on that genre.[3]

Vanoni scored two major hits in 1963 with "Senza fine" and "Che cosa c'è", both written for her byGino Paoli. In 1964, she won theFestival of Neapolitan song with "Tu si na cosa grande". In the following years, she took part in a series ofFestivals of Italian song inSanremo with the songs "Abbracciami forte" (1965), "Io ti darò di più" (1966), "La musica è finita" (1967), "Casa Bianca" (1968), and "Eternità" (1970). "Casa Bianca", which finished second in 1968, was the subject of a copyright dispute between the composer of the song,Don Backy, and the ClanCelentano label.[citation needed]

In the late 1960s, Vanoni recorded "Una ragione di più", "Un'ora sola ti vorrei", "L'appuntamento" (a cover of the Brazilian song "Sentado à beira do caminho" byErasmo Carlos andRoberto Carlos)[4] and "Non dirmi niente", a cover ofBurt Bacharach's "Don't Make Me Over". In 1972, she sang "Quei giorni insieme a te", the theme fromLucio Fulci's critically acclaimed mystery thriller filmDon't Torture a Duckling.[citation needed]

Ornella Vanoni in 2007

In 1976, Vanoni collaborated withVinicius de Moraes andToquinho on the albumLa voglia, la pazzia, l'incoscienza, l'allegria, best remembered for its title track "La voglia, la pazzia". During the 1980s, she released "Ricetta di donna", "Uomini", and "Ti lascio una canzone" (with Gino Paoli). In1989, she returned to the Sanremo Music Festival with the song "Io come farò". In 1999, she recorded "Alberi", a duet withEnzo Gragnaniello. In 2004, she released an album of duets with Paoli to celebrate her 70th birthday.[5]

In addition to her music career, Vanoni was active in other creative fields, starring in stage and in television shows and movies. In January 1977, she posed nude for the Italian edition ofPlayboy magazine and requested a statuette by her long-time friend the artistArnaldo Pomodoro as payment.[6] The inclusion of her song "L'appuntamento" (1970) on the soundtrack ofSteven Soderbergh'sOcean's Twelve in 2004 sparked a worldwide renewal of interest in her music. The soundtrack of the Danish filmToscana (2022,Netflix) also featured the song.[7]

Personal life and death

[edit]

Vanoni had several relationships with other artists, the most important of which were withGiorgio Strehler andGino Paoli.[8] Between 1960 and 1965, she was married toLucio Ardenzi [it], from whom she had one son, Cristiano, in 1962. Due to Vanoni's busy professional life, the child was mainly raised by her parents.[8][9]

Vanoni was a Christian, and for a period she spent time with Protestants.[10] She was a supporter of theAC Milan association football club.[11] In June 2025, she received anhonorary degree in "Music, Culture, Media and Performance" from theUniversity of Milan.[12]

Vanoni died of a heart attack at her home in Milan on 21 November 2025, at the age of 91.[13][14] Her casket lay in repose at thePiccolo Teatro, where she began her career. Her funeral was held at theChurch of San Marco in theBrera district of Milan on 24 November 2025.[3][14][15] Before her death, she requested that her remains be cremated and the ashes dispersed in theVenice Lagoon.[14]
