- Italian singer Giorgia performed a concert in Palmanova, Italy, as part of her

Italian singer Giorgia delivered a powerful performance in Palmanova, Italy, blending her soulful voice with a career-spanning repertoire. The concert, held in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Piazza Grande, showcased Giorgia's evolution over three decades in music.

The important thing is the vibration and we are this tonight. Especially when we make music together.

โ€” GiorgiaReflecting on the concert's atmosphere during her performance.

Opening her "G summer" tour, Giorgia began with "L'unica," accompanied by visuals of human eyes and hearts on LED screens, emphasizing a shared musical experience. The setlist included hits like "Un amore da favola" and the iconic "Gocce di memoria," the soundtrack to Ferzan ร–zpetek's film "La finestra di fronte."

The nearly two-hour show was a dynamic mix of high energy and intimate storytelling. Giorgia actively engaged with the audience, inviting a 10-year-old drummer named Leo and a concert newcomer, Matilde, onto the stage. She playfully interacted with fans, receiving drawings and flowers, and even quipped about losing control of the show.

You had to play with the young ones.

Giorgia also shared her appreciation for the Friuli region, noting its resemblance to the home of fellow singer Elisa. The concert featured emotional renditions of songs like "Marzo" and a standing ovation for "Come saprei," the Sanremo-winning track that cemented her status. She continued to captivate the audience with "E poi," and later encouraged a singalong for "Di sole e d'azzurro."

It could have gone worse, Matilde. Better, but also worse, I hope you like it.

Her performance also included newer tracks like "Paradossale" and "Tra le lune e le dune." Demonstrating her versatility, Giorgia fused her own hits with covers, transforming Prince's "Purple Rain" from "Corpi celesti" and paying tribute to Michael Jackson with "Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough." A poignant moment came with her rendition of Pino Daniele's "Vento di passione," remembering the late artist. The show concluded with the highly anticipated "La cura per me," leaving the audience on their feet, fully immersed in the "performance and vibration."

I've completely lost control of this show... if I ever had it.

โ€” GiorgiaReacting to the continuous stream of gifts from the audience.
