La sfida di Mara Sattei: "Sul palco una nuova versione di me"

Mara Sattei on Mara Sattei Live 2026

Mara Sattei visits Il Tempo’s artist newsstand to discuss her upcoming Mara Sattei Live 2026 tour, which begins on November 13 at Rome’s Alcazar. She describes the tour as a journey through seven years of music and a range of genres. It will also give fans the chance to see a new side of her: she’ll play live onstage for the first time.

Sattei is closely involved in shaping the setlist, imagining what she would want to hear if she were in the audience.

Music and emerging artists

Sattei describes the past year as a joyful return to sharing music and performing after time spent writing her album and working on Casa Gospel, a project with her brother.

At each tour stop, she plans to make space for an emerging artist. She says it remains difficult for new musicians to reach an audience, and believes they deserve a chance to be heard.

Albums, attention, and Sanremo

The conversation touches on how constant online “inputs” can shorten attention spans. Sattei hopes listeners will make time for albums and lasting projects instead of treating music as disposable.

Looking back on her two Sanremo experiences, she says both were special. This year, she felt more at ease and had fun, despite the inevitable nerves.

A new chapter

Sattei says she’s happy in her new marriage and enjoying this chapter of her life.

When asked to sing, she playfully declines to give a preview, telling the audience they’ll have to come to the live show—a response that prompts laughter.
