Alice set the stage for a career that defies pop expectations with her winning song at the 31st Sanremo Music Festival, “Per Elisa”. This number blended the singer-songwriter’s Beethoven inspirations with an octave-spanning, ’80s rock spin that amplified her potent storytelling. Alice’s rich influences and restless genre-digging always make her catalogue ripe for exploration—taking in the string-laden lyricism of Gioielli Rubati (1985) and the laid-back electronic atmospheres of Exit (1998), as well as alt-rock experimentations and stirring contemporary homages to her prolific late collaborator Franco Battiato.
