02 November 2020While the notes of Roman Barcarolo by Gigi Proietti in Viale di Villa Massimo resound at full volume: some residents are thus paying homage to the Maestro.

And online there is a continuous succession of greetings and gifts from friends and personalities from entertainment, theater, cinema and television. 



"It's a great pain," said 

Massimo Ghini

.

"Lately we were seeing each other because we were working on things and I saw that he was not very well," he says.

"One of the memories that binds me the most to him, dates back to the times when I was not yet an actor, but I went to see the show" A me gli occhi please "nine, ten times and then he did many things" - continues Ghini - the idea that he was a Roman or Roman actor is wrong.

His artistic figure has always been crushed, in a good way, by his Romanism.

Often the word Maestro is used inappropriately, but in this case it was and it was for many children with his school ".



"There could not have been a worse awakening. Today, on the very day of his 80th birthday, Gigi Proietti left us forever. I loved the talent but also the humanity of this man with whom I had the great joy of working. Goodbye. Gigi. We will miss you very much ", is the memory that the actress and singer

"As a kid my father used to take me to see you in the theater, then I got to know you well and I realized that you were not only a genius but also a person of immense value. Fly to heaven Master and thank you for the wonder you left us in your passage land ", writes

There is a lot of talk about talent ... Here is talent. Thanks Gigi ", says the actor
