Orlando with Ricardo Karam 2008
- For Info: http://www.rkprodgroup.com/
Cairo to Paris, 25th December 1954: At the dawn of her twenty-second birthday, a young dark-haired lady with a queenly bearing is experiencing in this plane the adventure of her life. Mid-way between the lights of her city and an idealised city of lights, flying from the East to the West, Yolanda Gigliotti gives herself up to the thousand and one dreams buzzing through her head. Driven by a faith and determination strong enough to shake the Pyramids, Yolanda is waiting for her time to come up. She became Dalida, a singer who somehow went down in legend in the same beautiful way as she used to make her entrance: both queenly, touching and dignified under a thunder of applause. Standing up right into the sunlight, a Madonna of flesh and blood in the crossfire of the spotlights: that was how she chose to live her life. Punctuated by an impressive list of achievements, her career is a model on more than one account: Dalida was the first artist ever awarded a gold record, she was the first singer in Europe to have fans, she was the pioneer of French disco music and she was the first ever female singer to keep the Palais des Sports concert hall in Paris full for three weeks. From her first appearance under the joint leadership of Lucien Morisse, Eddie Barclay and Bruno Coquatrix, to her "light-years" alongside her brother and producer Orlando, Dalida lived through and transcended her destiny until it had become a myth.Hidden away in the depths of her soul for such a long time and lost among the big names, the little girl of the sun no longer wanted to play. On 3rd May 1987, she threw in the sponge and lowered the curtain. The legend, which feeds on tragic and exceptional destinies, was already on the move. On the 20th anniversary of her death, Ricardo pays tribute to the legend by interviewing her brother and producer Orlando in Paris, France.
