"Lucio Dalla always returned to the parallel between Brazil and Naples: the song of beauty, in any form, as an inspiration for Brazilian and Neapolitan artists, whose music expressed a completely unique personality and identity, completely independent with regards to the anglophone music, dominant at the time. That's why Lucio cited as an example the historical performance of Caetano Veloso in the extremely Neapolitan 'Luna Rossa', applauded by a hundred thousand people in Naples, in 1995, at a concert at Piazza Plebiscito: 'It was a great idea and Caetano gave an unforgettable performance!'. The interpretation of Veloso testified to a synthesis between Brazilian and Neapolitan music, also in terms of culture." The pages of the biographical novel by Raffaele Lauro, "Caruso The Song - Lucio Dalla and Sorrento" present in full the musical fusion between the work of the great artist from Bologna and the classics of Neapolitan song, Brazilian music and opera, the most complete expression of which is his masterpiece: "Caruso".
