Lucio Battisti (5 March 1943 – 9 September 1998) was an influential Italian singer-songwriter and composer.
He is widely recognized for songs that defined the late 1960s and 1970s era of Italian songwriting.One of the greatest, most influential and innovative Italian singers and musicians of all time, he is considered one of the greatest figures in the history of Italian music both as a composer and performer of his songs, and as a composer for other artists. Battisti released 18 studio albums from 1969 to 1994, with a significant portion of this catalogue translated into Spanish (various albums), English (one album), French (two albums), and German (one album).
He was known to be an extremely reserved artist, performing only a small number of live concerts during his career.
Already since 1978 he announced that he would speak to the public only through his musical work, limiting himself to the recording of studio albums and disappearing from the public scene.
