Sanremo: Amadeus at Mass with Don Gatta, former Rai journalist

(ANSA) - SANREMO, 23 JAN - "Happy Sunday". When asked for "a few words" on the 72nd Sanremo Festival (1-5 February), Amadeus responded to the exit of the San Siro co-cathedral, where he attended mass, and then immediately returned to work. "Today we are not talking about the Festival", he added, heading with a Rai delegation towards via Matteotti, the street that leads to the Ariston theater. The reason why Amadeus wanted to participate in a religious function in the central church of San Siro, inevitably in the spotlight, rather than in a more peripheral place, is explained by the fact that the mass was officiated by Don Fabrizio Gatta, a former Rai journalist for 20 years. , friend of the artistic director and host of the Festival.

    Don Gatta was ordained a priest on 7 December, right in the co-cathedral.

Born and raised in Rome, his family members have Sanremo origins.
