FLORENCE, ITALY – The tenor Luciano Pavarotti ‘s widow , Nicoletta Mantovani, was called to be part of the municipal council of Florence from the new mayor of the city, Dario Nardella. The announcement was made today, June 4, 2014, in Palazzo Vecchio during the presentation of the new government team of Florence, Italy.
“I think Nicoletta is a simple, dynamic and truly extraordinary person: he has
secured its commitment to the city, to promote Florence in the world. I asked her to follow the international relations because the foreign minister in a city like Florence should be familiar with the world”, Nardella said expelling his choice.
Nicoletta Mantovani was already a councilor in the municipal council a few years ago in Bologna, when she was called in the team of the Mayor Flavio Del Bono with responsibility for culture.
“With the experience of the foundation she chaired dedicated to Pavarotti and the network of relationships built alongside the greatest singer of all time I think Nicoletta will surely lend a hand to our city”, Nardella added.
