Milva

Musician

Milva (born Maria Ilva Biolcati, 17 July 1939 – 23 April 2021) was an Italian singer and actress known for theatrical interpretations, German-language work and collaborations with composers such as Franco Battiato.

Known for Brecht interpretations and theatrical singing; performed in Italian, German and other languages; collaborated with Franco Battiato and Giusto Pio; nicknamed "La Rossa" and referred to as the "panther of Goro".

Two DeBaser reviews discuss Milva's collaborations and theatrical interpretation. London praises the 1982 album Milva e dintorni (Battiato/Pio). Ildebrando examines Milva's Brecht interpretations and alienation technique. Overall the coverage is appreciative of her interpretative strength.

For:Fans of theatrical singing, Brecht interpretations, European chanson, and Franco Battiato followers.

 An entire work written by Franco Battiato and Giusto Pio for the voice of Milva, or rather a series of songs composed by the two that revolve around the magnetic and strong personality of the panther of Goro.

 "If people only want to see things they can understand, they shouldn’t go to the theater; they should go to the bathroom."
