Emma Nolde releases Sirene (with Brunori Sas) – Live, a live recording that captures the encounter between the voices of two formidable singer-songwriters, both delicate and incisive, to celebrate exactly one year since the release of her album NUOVOSPAZIOTEMPO (a finalist for the Targa Tenco Award for Best Overall Album, as well as her first recording project with Carosello Records).
This release marks a kaleidoscopic year for the artist, who has experienced an undeniable crescendo of acclaim, praise, and gratification, including a live performance with Brunori Sas and the orchestral accompaniment of the Ensemble Symphony Orchestra, which is certainly one of Emma’s most cherished moments.
(…) Tu è una vita che sbagli
Che rompi i bicchieri e lasci decidere gli altri
Tu è una vita che sbagli
Che per non deludere gli altri
Preferisci deludere te
Ma con me puoi essere quello che vuoi
The lyrics of this song speak to those who have found themselves trapped between the will and expectations of others, in a life dictated by others: “Sirene” is a song of exhortation to take control of your own destiny, starting with the smallest, most everyday gestures, because now you can be whatever you want. A gentle reminder that there’s always time to start over, set new goals, and do everything you’ve put aside.
Emma Nolde is undoubtedly a young gem of contemporary songwriting. It’s no coincidence that we’ll see her close out Milan Music Week at the official closing party on Sunday, November 23rd at the Dazio di Levante (Arco della Pace). Already a two-time finalist for the Targhe Tenco despite being just 24 years old, this year she opened the latest edition of the Tenco Awards, where she was the youngest candidate and the only female singer-songwriter among the finalists.
She also continues her participation in Spotify‘s SPOTIFY RADAR 2025, which previously selected her as an Ambassador for its international GLOW campaign, and VEVO Italy’s Newcomers 2025.
