On New Year's Eve, from 22.30 pm, Piazza Garibaldi will be transformed into a huge dance floor to welcome GIORGIO MORODER, one of the undisputed music geniuses of the last forty years.
The notes of the inventor of Disco music will accompany the public into the new year with a DJ set produced by Moroder himself, promoted by the Municipality of Parma and the Teatro Regio di Parma, in which the South Tyrolean artist will retrace some of his greatest successes have marked the history and sound of international music.
The concert is free.
At 75, Giorgio Moroder is ready to give a boost of energy and vitality to the craziest night of the year, faithful to the maxim with which he presented his album 74 is the new 24, "Dance music doesn't care where you live. It doesn't care what friends you have. It doesn't care how much money you have. He doesn't care if you're 74 or 24." The undisputed founding father of live electronic music, he was the author of Donna Summer's major hits such as I Feel Love or Love to Love You Baby and has collaborated with the greatest international pop and rock artists.
Since the eighties, Moroder has ventured into writing soundtracks for films that have achieved great successes, winning numerous Golden Globes and Academy Awards, such as for “Midnight Express” (The Chase), “Flashdance” (Flashdance…What a feeling ) and “Top Gun” (Take my breath away).
In 2013 Moroder regained new popularity thanks to the collaboration on the album Random Access Memories by Daft Punk in which in the track "Giorgio by Moroder" he recorded his own autobiographical piece, which later became a real catchphrase, gaining enormous consensus among the public so as to push him to return on the international music scene by publishing again, thirty years after the last effort, the new album "Déjà Vu" and performing in public.
