Povia

Povia 這位來自意大利布雷西亞的歌手，既沒有俊美非凡的外表，也沒有眩目奪魂的舞姿，更沒有特別高亢的聲音。但是他卻憑借著他的堅持和努力，憑借著他卓越的音樂天分和對藝術獨特的感悟，憑借著他對人生深刻的體察和理解，創(chuàng)造出了一種特別具有美感和魔力的新聲音！他的低音比較輕，甚至有些黯啞，飄飄的能攝住聽者的靈魂；他的高音又如天上的星辰，清亮卻并不過分華麗，在靜謐的夜里具有令人吃驚的穿透力，在娓娓道來中蘊涵著對生命的激情。自從第一次在塞雷莫音樂節(jié)上大放異彩以后，他的演藝之路就一直平步青云，獲得了無數的獎項。如今，他已經成為了意大利歌壇重量級人物，是目前最當紅的巨星。可以說，他是一個真正在唱歌的歌者，他真正做到了能夠唱得讓人哭也能夠唱得讓人笑，他的情感讓他贏得了一切！
Giuseppe Povia was born in 1972 on the Milanese island of Elba. He began playing guitar from the age of 14 without formal instruction. Povia went from learning other artists' material by ear to creating his own compositions a few years later at the age of 20. In 1999, Povia enrolled in the Academy of Sanremo. Though his time there was short, Povia made an important connection during his stay with producer Giancarlo Bigazzi. Together the two recorded the single "E Vero," which became Povia's introduction to listeners nationwide. With his 2003 single "Mia Sorella" addressing bulimia, Povia not only won the Nuove Tendenze della Canzone Popolare e d'Autore award, but established a reputation as a socially conscious songwriter. In that vein, Povia's 2005 single "Avamposto 55" was a strong statement of solidarity with the children of Darfur, and started a campaign to build a hospital in that region. The proceeds of Povia's 2006 disc I Bambino Fanno "Oh" were donated to those ends; the album sold more than 200,000 units and received special accolades from Sony BMG, the artist's record label. "I Bambino" has since been translated into Spanish and become something of a theme for the international "Let Children be Children" campaign. Povia's 2006 single "No e il Momento" debuted well, receiving heavy video and radio rotation.
