"We are working on March 2, for me the date must be March 2 to 6, we must be able to give the public a festival with absolutely all the health rules, because health is the most important thing and nobody has to be put at risk, but we must all work together, with Rai, with the technicians, so that everyone is safe but the festival is as normal as possible ".
This was stated by
Amadeus, artistic director and host of Sanremo 2021, guest of Rtl 102.5,
answering a question about the dates of the festival.
"Sanremo - he reiterated - cannot be done without an audience, in an empty Ariston".
"
Alessandra Amoroso and Emma are two fantastic artists
", "I respect them very much, it is not excluded that they may be in Sanremo, even if we are not talking about them at the moment", said Amadeus.
"It will be a Sanremo crowded with great artists: I would be honored with their presence, but we haven't talked about it yet," he added.
As for Achille Lauro, a permanent presence in the cast of the festival, "he will propose five artistic paintings that will make a journey through music and time: these days we are talking about it, there are five very strong ideas, moments of real show. truly complete artist, I like him very much ", he reiterated.
For Sanremo 2021 we are "really and seriously working" on the idea of a ship as a sort of 'bubble' to allow 500 people to participate in the Ariston festival.
"The idea - he said - is to create a bubble to secure 500 people and allow them to be present at the Ariston. They must always be the same, have no contact with anyone, maybe some of them also vaccinated, beyond beyond the daily swabs that we will do, taken on a beautiful ship on which to spend a week's vacation, brought ashore in minibuses for up to twenty people and then brought back to the ship after the evening ".
"It is an idea - said Amadeus - on which we are seriously and really working, which has aroused curiosity in every part of the world, even in America. Clearly - he concluded - there is a protocol, it is not a simple thing , but it can be done ".
After the triumphal one of the Rich and the Poor in Sanremo 2020, Amadeus would like to celebrate another reunion at the Ariston, said Amadeus.
"Reunions are important - he stressed - because they belong to the history of music. The public is sorry when historical groups separate. Last year I was in Sanremo for Sanremo Giovani, when the manager of Ricchi e Poveri mentioned the possibility of a reunion. I stopped him on the stairs of the Casino and told him: 'I have to take them to Sanremo'. I hope to bring home another reunion this year, let's see ".
As for the possibility that the Abba will participate in the festival, "maybe there were, they belong to the category of desires. I also have other important ones, let's see if they will materialize: after all, dreams are desires".
