NICOSIA, Cyprus—Ornella Vanoni, a beloved performer who had a seven decade-long singing career, has died. She was 91.
In a post on X Saturday, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni expressed her deep sorrow for the loss of Vanoni, whose “unmistakable voice” left an imprint on Italian culture for generations. “Italy loses a unique artist who leaves us with an unrepeatable artistic heritage,” Meloni said.
