Rosangela Scalabrino (born 31 May 1950), known professionally as Gilda, is an Italian singer-songwriter. She won the Sanremo Music Festival 1975 with the song "Ragazza del sud".[1]

Life and career

[edit]

A native of Masserano, Piedmont, Gilda started her career as the vocalist in a local band. After failing to qualify for a previous edition, she debuted at the 25th edition of the Sanremo Music Festival and won the competition with a song composed by herself, "Ragazza del sud", which was heavily criticized for its anti-feminist lyrics and its negative portrayal of Southern Italy.[2][3]

After a few further singles, Gilda got married and started managing a hotel in Turin, abandoning the show business industry except for a few occasional live performances.[2][3]
