Artistry

Queen of Screamers

Caught by the wave of rock’n’roll sweeping across Italy in 1958,[5] Mina listened to American records[25] and was a frequent visitor at the Derby jazzclub,[72] the Santa Tecla and the Taverna Messicana clubs of Milan. Milan (Milano Milan (listen) is one of the largest cities in Italy, located in the plains of Lombardy. The places were known for promoting rock'n'roll. [25] Part of Mina’s repertoire in the beginning of her career were clumsy imitations of British and American rock and jazz songs. [5] The new rhythm called for new artistry. Mina was one of the first singers on Italian TV, who moved her body during her performance. [5] Earlier in 1958, Domenico Modugno had caused astonishment by raising his hands in the air during, performing Nel blu dipinto di blu („Volare”). Domenico Modugno ( January 9 1928 - August 6 1994) was a twice Grammy Award -winning Italian Singer, Songwriter " Nel blu dipinto di blu " (literally "In the blue painted blue" popularly known as " Volare " ( Italian for the infinitive form of the Mina’s first TV appearances took a step further in breaking the rule of the motionless artist. Using her whole body to visualize the beat, she shook her head, hands and hips in the rhythm. [5] The writer Edoardo Sanguineti recalled her performance on TV as:[73]

“. Edoardo Sanguineti (born December 9, 1930) is an Italian writer born in Genoa. . . for many people a memorable experience. . . a revelation. ”

For her distinctive timbre and power, Mario Riva, the host of the TV program, entitled her as an urlator ("screamer"),[74][75] referring to the energetic rock'n'roll generation. In Music, timbre (ˈtæm-bər' like timber, or, from Fr timbre tɛ̃bʁ is the quality of a Musical note or sound that distinguishes different Later Mina was considered the Queen of the Screamers. [6] Her rock’n’roll act brought her another nickname "Tiger of Cremona". [76]

Grownup

The song "Il cielo in una stanza" introduced Mina’s new sensual maner. [77][78] Mina’s lovestory with Corrado Pani represented the evolution of the social status of women in Italy, that did not accord with the dominant catholic and bourgeois virtues. Catholic is an Adjective derived from the Greek adjective '' / 'katholikos' meaning "whole" or "complete". Virtue ( Latin virtus; Greek) is moral Excellence. Personal virtues are characteristics valued as promoting individual [20] The scandal developed an image of a ’bad girl’,[6] which she emphasized later with her song themes. Particularly her performance of "Sacumdì Sacumdà" on air, after Radiotelevisione Italiana had expressed their displeasure with the lyrics about a girl’s encounter with the devil. [79] The lyrics of "Ta-ra-ta-ta" were considered immoral by the Italian broadcasting service, because they dealt with smoking. [80] Other songs, that were initially banned by Radiotelevisione Italiana, included "La canzone di Marinella" and "L'importante è finire". The latter alluded to sex without love. [81] Mina had a sexy appeal and a cool act,[6] including public smoking,[82] dyed blond hair, shaved eyebrows and heavy use of eye make-up. [83]

The main theme of Mina's songs was dramatic interpretation of distressing love stories. [84] The composer Bruno Canfora wrote the song "Brava" and Ennio Morricone the song "Se telefonando" to demonstrate her singing skills. The pieces had large vocal range and transitions of tonality. [85][12] Songs were exclusively composed and arranged for Mina accompanied by an all-star orchestra of the TV variety series Studio uno, Sabato sera, Canzonissima and Teatro 10. [86] Mina combined the classic Italian melody with soul music, particularly in "Un bacio è troppo poco" and "Se stasera sono qui". Soul music is a Music genre that combines Rhythm and blues and Gospel music, originating in the United States. [87] She helped to incorporate new styles to the Continental European pop music, particularly latin music with "La banda", nuevo tango with "Balada para mi muerte", and bossa nova with "Sacumdì Sacumdà". Latin music, includes the music of all countries in Latin America (and the Caribbean) and comes in many varieties Astor Piazzolla 1975png|thumb|left|the musical father of "nuevo tango" Bandoneón virtuoso Ástor Piazzolla.

Mina's mimics and body used to live with the story and the athmosphere of the song. [88] As the music critic Gherardo Gentili said:[89]

“With Mina, a word became the word, a note became the note. ”

Mogol-Battisti

Marking a change in her musical style in 1969, the chameleon-like Mina[90] changed her look into a new one, featuring long blonde curly hair. Chameleons (family Chamaeleonidae) are squamates that belong to one of the best-known Lizard families The first songs from Mogol and Lucio Battisti to Mina resumed with her soul skills, particularly "Insieme"[91] and "Io e te da soli". Soul music is a Music genre that combines Rhythm and blues and Gospel music, originating in the United States. [92] Along the time of the cooperation with the songwriting duo, Mina turned towards middle-of-the-road pop. [6] Battisti's melodies were sophisticated and the chord sequence complex. The songs were characterized by frequent changes of rhythm, pauses and dialogues between the voice and the orchestra. [93] Another characterizing feature was an instrumental introduction without a rhythmic base. Lucio Battisti called Mina an ideal singer for a composer,[94][91] making the best of the authors' complicated ideas and Italian language skills. [91][95]

Mina Latina

A fan of bossa nova, Mina recorded in Spanish and Portuguese from the start of her career. Bossa nova ( is a style of Brazilian music popularized by Antônio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes and João Gilberto. This gave her a fan base in Spain and Latin-America. Pedro Almodóvar used Mina's songs in his movie soundtracks, and translated her "Un anno d'amore" into "Un Año de amor". Pedro Almodóvar Caballero (ˈpeð̞ɾo almoˈð̞oβ̞̞aɾ kaβ̞aˈʝeɾo (born September 24, 1949 in Calzada de Calatrava, Spain) is a Spanish In 2001 Mina published the compilation album Colección Latina, with standards in Spanish, as well as translations of her Italian successes. In 2003 the musical "Mina. . . che cosa sei?" was staged in Argentina, based on Mina's songs. For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Argentina topics.

Personal life

In 1962 Mina fell in love with the actor Corrado Pani. As he was already married, although separated, their relationship astonished the whole Italian audience. On April 18, 1963 their son Massimiliano Pani was born. Due to Mina's refusal to hide her relationship, the singer was totally banned from performing on any public Italian television and radio channels. As her record sales stayed unaffected, and people continued demanding to see Mina on the air, Radiotelevisione Italiana was forced to end the ban and let Mina return to television on January 10, 1964. In a year's time her love story with Corrado ended, resulting in a legal battle for baby Massimiliano's custody rights. [97] Mina's brother Alfredo Mazzini died in a car accident in 1965. A year later she and his father moved to live in Lugano, Switzerland. Mina's intimate relationships still stayed in Italy, as she had a short tie to the Italian TV editor Walter Chiari. A later relationship - with the actor Gian Maria Volontè - was broken, after she found out Volontè's affair with an actress.
