Lucio Dalla:
Bologna, Italy 4 March 1943 – Montreux, Switzerland, 1 March 2012
Com'e' Profondo Il Mare (1977)
Dalla was the composer of Caruso (1986) which has been covered by numerous international artists.
A version of Caruso sung by Luciano Pavarotti sold over 9 million copies, and another version was a track on Andrea Bocelli's first international album Romanza, which later sold over 20 million copies worldwide.
This piece is also on Josh Groban's album "Closer", which sold over 5 million copies in the United States alone. The song is a tribute to the emblematic opera tenor Enrico Caruso. Maynard Ferguson also covered the song on his album "Brass Attitude", after having previously paid tribute to Caruso with his rendition of Vesti la giubba (titled as Pagliacci) on the album "Primal Scream".
