The Lucca Summer Festival announces an evening event of extraordinary intensity: John Legend will take to the stage on 5 July to present “A Night of Songs and Stories”, an intimate show combining music and storytelling in one of the most iconic settings of the Italian summer. Conceived as a journey through more than twenty years of career, the show offers intimate and evocative versions of the songs that have marked the artist's career - from All of Me to Ordinary People, to Tonight - intertwined with personal stories, anecdotes and reflections that offer a unique insight into his artistic and personal life.
Winner of 13 Grammy Awards and member of the prestigious EGOT club, having also won an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a Tony Award and four Emmy Awards, John Legend is globally recognised as one of the most accomplished and influential figures in contemporary entertainment. He is an artist capable of moving naturally between music, theatre, cinema and television, while always maintaining a strong authorial identity. From his debut with Get Lifted in 2004 to his most recent albums, Legend has built an extensive and diverse discography, establishing himself as a leading voice in international soul and pop music. In 2024, he celebrated the 20th anniversary of his debut album with a deluxe digital version and a dedicated world tour, bringing back to the stage a repertoire that has marked an entire generation.
