Maurizio Arcieri - essential biography*
From the New Dada to the satellite, from the beat moods to the
electronic experimentalism: the life and career of Maurizio Arcieri
and Christina Moser
1967:
some members of The New Dada follow Maurizio as supporting group.
"Ballerina" and "Il comizio" are released. In
the spring of the same year the remaining members of The New Dada support the
Rolling
Stones in their Roman concert.
1968/1970:
Maurizio participates at the "Disco
per l'Estate" Festival with "Cinque Minuti e poi...";
the song
is one of the greatest hits of the year and the
leit-motiv of "Quelli belli siamo noi"
("We Are the Beautiful Ones"), a successful "musicarello" (musical
comedy movie) in which Maurizio acts and sings some of his hits.
The movie features - among others - Carlo Dapporto,
Carlo delle Piane, Isabella Biagini,
Ric e Gian and a young Loredana Bertè.
The album "Maurizio"

1971/1975:
the albums "Maurizio"

Maurizio is then chosen as the
Italian narrator for the pan-european album "Peter and the
Wolf", a Polydor project that involves Brian Eno,
Phil Collins,
Alvin Lee, Manfred Mann and many others.
Maurizio marries Christina, who has followed him for years as a
faithful fan.
