Overview

On the first volume of the album, Mina presents her interpretations of songs by other artists. Among them: "Nessun dolore" by Lucio Battisti, in this song the singer demonstrates her wide vocal range, "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" by Elton John and "Careless Whisper" by George Michael. The song "Gloria" was already recorded by Mina for the album Due note (1961). There are new songs on the second volume.

As usual, the album was released in the fall, again as a double album on vinyl and in two volumes on CD and cassette. The album entered the top five of the chart in Italy.[3]

For the recording of this album, Mina received the Targa Tenco prize as the best performer.[4]
