Ricchi e Poveri

Ricchi e Poveri (pronounced [ˈrikki e pˈpɔːveri, -kj e -]; "The Rich and The Poor") is an Italian pop group formed in Genoa in 1967, originally consisting of Angela Brambati, Angelo Sotgiu, Franco Gatti and Marina Occhiena.

[1] The group was formed in 1967 in Genoa as a polyphonic quartet by singers Angela Brambati, Angelo Sotgiu, Franco Gatti and Marina Occhiena in 1967.

The quartet earned its own unique vocal style, based on the intertwining of four different voices: bass (Gatti), tenor (Sotgiu), alto (Occhiena) and soprano (Brambati).

Ricchi e Poveri have participated in the Sanremo Music Festival several times since 1970; in 1971 they sang there "Che sarà", which was written by Jimmy Fontana and Franco Migliacci.

Several groups covered the song, adapting it to different genres including tropical, dance, and various forms of Mexican folk music known as Grupera.

The song was remade in 2008 in German, by Diana Sorbello as "Das ist, weil ich dich liebe" and in 2011, in Dutch, by Monique Smit and Tim Douwsma as "Eén zomeravond met jou".
