Italian musical figures Peppino di Capri and Francesco Guccini are being honored following their deaths.

In Benevento, the 47th edition of Benevento Città Spettacolo held a tribute to Peppino di Capri at Piazza Santa Sofia. The event featured performances by Lina Sastri, Francesco Del Gaudio, Monica Sarnelli, and Enzo Gragnaniello. Di Capri’s son, Edoardo Faiella, performed his father’s music alongside a band to preserve his legacy. The evening also included the inaugural “Personalità Leggendarie” award.

In a separate tribute, Radio Città Fujiko is organizing a community radio special to honor the late Francesco Guccini, who passed away on August 6. The station is inviting listeners to submit voice notes via WhatsApp or Telegram containing personal memories, significant song lyrics, and song requests. These contributions will be compiled into a special broadcast scheduled for September 10.
