Veteran TV presenter Pippo Baudo is teaming up with Fabio Rovazzi, an Italian pop star who is particularly popular with children, to present Sanremo Giovani (Young Sanremo) on State broadcaster RAI next month.
Sanremo Giovani is the system that makes it possible for
young talents to qualify for Italy's much-loved Sanremo Song
Festival, a contest that kicked off the careers of many Italian
music greats.
The pairing was chosen by singer-songwriter Claudio Baglioni,
who is the artistic director for the festival for the second
year running.
Baudo, 82, is one of Italy's best loved TV personalities and
he has presented the main Sanremo festival many times himself.
