ANDLisa is back with a magical new song, perfect for this period that brings us closer to Christmas. Is called When it snows and was written by the same artist together with Calcutta and Dardust.
Elisa: the new song full of emotion
The ballad – from today, Friday 24 November, on the radio and on all digital platforms – is yet another confirmation that Elisa’s is a voice capable of entering everyone’s hearts with extreme ease. With a delicate arrangement of strings and piano, When it snows sees the artist return to deal with a tender and emotionally charged song.
When Elisa announces the release of a song, you have to be on the alert. Not only because in all these years of career he has never accustomed us to a single artistic approach (just think of his collaborations with world names apparently far from his like Rkomi, Marracash, Gué and Mahmood) but also because he always manages to hit the mark. To intercept sensations common to all.

Elisa: When it snows and collaboration with Calcutta
With this last song, the Friulian singer-songwriter decided to tell what it means to meet a person who, with his normality, is capable of revolutionizing an entire life. Singing images from everyday life, Elisa talks about this almost ethereal figure who, through her presence, always manages to make us miss her.
Also because, right at the end, seems to be going away. “You’re that genius who has no logic / You’re the one who comes and changes the dynamic,” she sings at the beginning of the ballad.
This song was the opportunity for Elisa to return to collaborate with Calcuttaafter he had signed two important songs for her: the hit If it rained your name and summer success Coastal. Theirs is an artistic encounter that always manages to amaze. Always giving Elisa’s wonderful voice new words full of real life.
When it snows anticipates Intimate – Recordings at Abbey Road Studiosthe album – out on December 12th – which saw Elisa re-record it directly at the Abbey Road Studios (yes, the London studios that became iconic thanks to the Beatles) some of his most important songs. 18 tracks recorded together with an orchestra.
The video with the piano used by John Lennon
On Instagram the singer published a clip in which she is in the company of Dardust inside the most famous studios in London. She wrote: «Recording an entire album at Abbey Road was an immersive experience also in its past».
And immediately after: “The piano you see is the one John Lennon played when he came here with the Beatles, there are still signs of burns from the cigarettes he forgot lit on the edge while he was composing. What could be more magical?”.
Elisa: new song and new album
Dardust is therefore also present in the song, another very important name for Elisa. Indeed, the producer had accompanied her on her last theater tour, An Intimate Nightof which Elisa’s new album will be a sort of continuum discographic.
Speaking of concerts, on 15 and 16 December Elisa will be the protagonist of two magical nights at the Assago Forum, in Milan, with her An Intimate Christmas. The perfect opportunity to present these new versions live. Waiting for Christmas, in the company of his exciting voice and his touching charisma.
