Excitement has surrounded the announcement of his public conversation at the Institute, scheduled for Sunday, March 1, from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Level 4, 125 York Street.
Tickets were snapped up within minutes, with the event reaching full capacity almost immediately.
The Sydney appearance forms part of the artist’s Australian tour, which will see him perform on March 5 at QPAC in Brisbane and on March 6 at the WOMADelaide Festival in Adelaide.
Yet the Institute event offers a rare opportunity to hear directly from Jovanotti about a career built by crossing sounds, countries and cultural landscapes.
At the centre of the conversation will be his new project, L’Arca di Lorè, an exploratory journey through cultures and worldviews designed to fuel curiosity and open new creative horizons.
It is an idea that has long been at the heart of Jovanotti’s artistic vision: music as a universal language, as a meeting place and as a form of freedom.
It is also an invitation not to see one’s place in the world as fixed or final, but to believe that mutual understanding can generate hope—and even peace.
The afternoon will provide insight into the creation of his latest album, Niuiorcherubini, conceived in just six days in New York—a rapid, immersive creative process that reflects the instinctive energy with which the Tuscan artist continues to reinvent himself.
An afternoon of conversation and music that, even before it begins, has already demonstrated its magnetic pull.
