Giovanni Caccamo—Youth and Future

Join us for an inspiring afternoon as we host acclaimed Italian singer and songwriter Giovanni Caccamo for a special event exploring the intersection of creativity and social change through music.

Discover the journey of Caccamo, who was discovered by music legends Franco Battiato and Caterina Caselli, and rose to fame after winning the newcomer's section of the Sanremo Music Festival 2015. In his career he collaborated with Willem Dafoe, Andrea Bocelli, Patti Smith, Lang Lang, Anohni and the Johnsons, Elisa, and many other Italian and international artists.

In this exclusive event, Caccamo will sit down with renowned Berklee Voice Faculty Stefano Marchese for a thought-provoking discussion on how creativity, especially in songwriting, can be a powerful tool for driving social change. The conversation will delve into the contributions of Italian songwriters to societal transformation and explore international musicians who have used their songs to effect change globally.

Experience the magic of Caccamo's music with live performances of his most impactful songs, gaining insight into his creative process and the messages behind his music. Engage directly with Caccamo during a Q&A session, where you can delve deeper into the themes of creativity and social change in music.

This meeting is part of the Manifesto for Change project—in collaboration with Banca Ifis, Pulsee, and Alessia Zanellia— a competition of ideas for the creation of a program on change: socio-cultural, environmental, and spiritual. It is aimed at young people who, like the artist, believe in a new world. This event is open to all music enthusiasts, students, and activists interested in the role of art in shaping a better world. Join us for an evening of music, conversation, and inspiration, and discover how songwriting and music can be powerful catalysts for positive change.
