Queen of shriekers

Mina's carieer took off when she recorded a rock'n'roll version of "Nessuno", a well-known Betty Curtis's swing song, which she performed at the first Festival rock in Milan Ice Palace, in February 1959.^[11] On 1st March and 4th April respectively, she was invited to perform the song in Lascia o raddoppia? and Il musichiere National TV pop quizzes.

Il cielo in una stanza

Mina's version of "Il cielo in una stanza", a song written by Gino Paoli, was the first of many of Mina's metamorphoses, transforming her from a rock'n'roll shrieker to a muse of cantautori. This introduced the singer to a much more refined genre, that she thereafter never left.^[17] Topping the list of annual sales in Italy^[18] and reaching 1961 US Billboard Hot 100, her unsurpassed interpretation turned the song into a classic of Italian pop music.^[19] Gino Paoli (born 23 September 1934) is an Italian singer-songwriter. ...

One and a half years later "Softly, as I Leave You", the English version of the song recorded by Matt Monro reached #10 in the UK Top 40. In 1964 Frank Sinatra's release peaked at #27 of the US Billboard Hot 100. Unaffected by Mina's lack of success in Sanremo Music Festival of 1960 and 1961, with "È vero" failing to qualify to the final and "Le mille bolle blu" receiving no special attention from the jury, the two contest songs had great chart success.

Growing up

In 1963 Mina's TV and radio career for Italian Broadcasting Service was abruptly brought to an end, as she refused to hide her pregnancy from her relationship with Corrado Pani, a married actor. Mina signed with Ri-Fi record label and manager Tonino Ascoldi. The song "È l'uomo per me" was the first success of the team, being the most sold single of 1964 in Italy.^[21] As her popularity was largely unscathed by the scandal, the Italian Broadcasting Service was forced to end the ban on Mina. The singer returned on 10 January 1964 in La fiera dei sogni TV program, with the serious "Città vuota".^[22] Her new sensual and melodic maner^[23] was demonstrated again in December 11, 1964 TV program "Il macchiettario", performing "Io sono quel che sono". Another grand occasion followed in 1965 with 12 Studio Uno nights of musical variety. The series included sensual, morbid blues songs "Un bacio è troppo poco" and a "Un anno d'amore".^[24] She also performed "Brava", a rhythmic jazz number specially written by Bruno Canfora to demonstrate Mina's vocal range and performing skills.^[25] Her Studio Uno album topped the Italian album chart of the year. Following the success, Mina signed a contract with the Barilla pasta label, starring in ten pasta commercials until 1971.

Se telefonando

In Spring 1966, Maurizio Costanzo and Ghigo De Chiara, the authors of the Aria condizionata TV show, wrote the lyrics for "Se telefonando", a theme for the TV program. The famous serialist composer Ennio Morricone was asked to write and arrange the music, and Mina to sing. The encounter of Mina and the three authors took place around an upright pianoforte in a RAI rehearsal room at Via Teulada, Rome. Morricone started to repeat a short musical theme or by his words a "micro-cell"^[26] of just three notes, that he had caught from the siren of a police car in Marseilles. After a few beats Mina grabbed the sheet with the lyrics and started to sing, as if she had known the tune before. The result was a pop song with an unusual vocal range and numerous transitions of tonality, handled flawlessly by Mina.^[27] "Se telefonando" was presented in May 1966 in one of the Studio Uno TV shows, and in August the same year on Aria condizionata.

Independence

In 1966, Mina started to co-operate with the Swiss Broadcasting Service In Italian Language and founded PDU, her independent record label. The first record under the label was "Dedicato a mio padre". Mina's growing interest in Brazilian music resulted in "La banda", a Chico Buarque cover, reaching #3. Mina continued to perform on Italian TV, singing "Zum zum zum", a #1 hit in Sabato sera Spring 1967 series, accompanied by NATO naval band, and a duet with Adriano Celentano. On 22 April 1967 during "Sabato sera" she performed "Addio", recorded at the Teatro Regio di Parma. The Senza rete show of 18 July 1968, presented Mina turning the Luigi Tenco's song "Se stasera sono qui" into a rigorous piece of soul music^[30] in the score of Pino Calvi.

Canzonissima '68

Despite the Italian "Hot autumn" of 1968, the Canzonissima grand variety nights from September 1968 to January 1969, hosted by Mina, Walter Chiari and Paolo Panelli, gathered unprecedented 20-22 million viewers. The fifteen Saturday nights presented Mina in her ultimate entertaining condition, accompanied by an orchestra of 400 people and a choir of 130.^[31] The series included several performances of the elegant "Un colpo al cuore" by Giancarlo Bigazzi and Mario Capuano, in Augusto Martelli's magnificent orchestration. Her talking and laughing version of "Sacumdi, sacumda", Carlos Imperial's bossa nova, was almost banned by RAI because of its unholy lyrics.

The song was performed as a part of a musical fantasy, back to back with "Quelli che hanno un cuore", her most intense version of "Anyone Who Had a Heart" in the orchestration of Bruno Canfora.^[32] Another masterpiece interpretation of a Dionne Warwick's hit was Mina's performance of "La voce del silenzio" ("Silent Voices"), especially written for Warwick by Paolo Limiti and Elio Isola.^[33] On 6 January Mina starred in eight sequences of the "Balli regionali" folklore ballet, each of them introducing a region of Italy. All of the variety nights were closed by Mina singing "Vorrei che fosse amore", a beautiful piece of atmospheric music scored by Bruno Canfora.^[34] To celebrate the 10th anniversary of her carieer, she returned to La Bussola in 1968, to give a concert and record her first live album "Mina alla Bussola dal vivo".^[35] Mina's first independent album to make it to weekly #1 of the charts, was "Bugiardo più che mai...più incosciente che mai..." in 1969. Cooperation with songwriting duo Battisti-Mogol produced sophisticated sensual hits like "Io e te da soli", presented in 1969 La notte della speranza Christmas TV program.^[36] In 1969-72 Mina produced 5 albums, each of them peaking at Italian Top #1 of at least a week and among the Top 7 of the year, albeit taking a break in live performances to give birth to her daughter.

Teatro 10

Mina's comeback took place at Italian Broadcasting Service's variety series Teatro 10, Spring 1972. The shows included Gianni Ferrio's rescore of "Se stasera sono qui", Mina's earlier hit song. "Balada para mi muerte", another special number on Teatro 10 presented Mina taking a shot at nuevo tango, in duet with Ástor Piazzolla at the bandoneón. "Grande grande grande" was a particular success, being the second most sold album of the year in Italy. Covered by Shirley Bassey as "Never never never", the song had international success at the UK Top 10 and #1 of the Australian charts. The short intense collaboration with the Battisti-Mogol songwriting duo resulted in "Amor mio", "Io vivrò senza te", "Insieme" and "E penso a te". The songs were characterized by frequent changes of rhythm, pauses and dialogues between the voice and the orchestra. The musical handwriting of Lucio Battisti was quite shamelessly copied by Luigi Albertelli. His "Fiume azzurro" was however turned into an ultimate success by Mina's virtuous performance.^[37] The final number of all of the eight Teatro 10 variety nights was "Parole parole", a duet with Alberto Lupo. The song was an easy listening dialogue of Mina's splendid singing with Lupo's declamation. The theme of the unusual song were hollow words. It intertwined Mina's lamentation of the end of love and the lies she had to hear, while Lupo simply spoke. She reacted and scoffed at the compliments that he gave her, calling them simply empty words - parole. The single was released in April 1972 to become a top hit of Italian charts.^[38] After the Teatro 10 series Mina declared withdrawal from TV performances to private life. This turned up incredible crowds for her exclusive concerts at La Bussola club in August and September, 1972.^[39]^[40] About 2,000 spectators per concert struggled their way inside, leaving thousands to listen at the street and the beach.^[41] At the concerts Mina performed selected pieces of her "Teatro 10" shows, with the Gianni Ferrio's Orchestra of grand instrumentalists like Gianni Basso at the tenor saxophone and Oscar Valdambrini at the trumpet.^[42] Nuevo tango or Tango nuevo is a form of music, which was born as elements of jazz and classical music were incorporated into traditional Argentinian tango. ...

Despite the loss of her husband, Mina continued her chart success with "E poi..." and "L'importante è finire". The last of the grand variety shows, hosted by Mina, was March 16, 1974 Milleluci, alongside Raffaella Carrà. The show included "Non gioco più", a splendid blues duet with harmonica player Toots Thielemans.^[43] Her last TV appearance was a censored version of her eroticist performance of "Ancora ancora ancora", as the final number of "Mille e una luce" show in July 1, 1978. Her last concert appearances were in 1978 with a series of thirteen fully-booked concerts at "La Bussola" broken off due to her illness. Mina gave her last ever public performance in August 23, 1978 at the Bussoladomani, the new theatre built by Sergio Bernardini, the owner of La Bussola, to facilitate the crowds like at Mina's 1972 concert at the same place.^[44] The concert was recorded and published as "Mina Live '78".^[45] Raffaella Roberta Pelloni (born 18 June 1943), better known by her artistic name Raffaella CarrÃ (in Italy often simply as Raffaella), is an Italian TV hostess, singer and actress. ...

Mina has continued to release albums on a yearly basis, with her son Massimiliano Pani as producer. Between 1972 and 1995 she published a double album a year.

From mid-eighties the design of the album covers was trusted to Balletti alone. Every Mina's record under her PDU label has reached Italian Top 100. A large part of her work has been covering well-known songs, dedicating monographic albums to The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Renato Zero, the city of Neaples and religious music. In 1985 "Questione di feeling", a duet with Riccardo Cocciante turned into a great success.^[46] In 2001 Mina released a DVD about her recording session, broadcasted over the Wind internet site on March 30, 2001. This resulted in millions of visits on the site at the night only, and additional millions on following days. In the last years Mina's releases have included duets with Mick Hucknall, Fabrizio De André, Piero Pelù, Adriano Celentano, Giorgia and others.

Personal life

In 1962 Mina fell in love with the actor Corrado Pani. As he was already married, 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 by Italian Broadcasting Service from performing on TV and radio. As people continued demanding to see Mina on the air, RAI was forced to end the ban and let Mina triumphantly return to television on January 10, 1964. Soon their love story was, however, over, resulting in a legal battle for baby Massimiliano's custody rights.^[47] 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 Volonte's affair with an actress. Mina's great love of the late sixties, that during three years was all but conveyed into a marriage, was the composer Augusto Martelli.
