Miranda Martino (born 29 October 1933) is an Italian singer and actress.
Life and career
Born in Moggio Udinese from Neapolitan parents, Martino started her career as a singer in 1956.[1] In 1957, she debuted at the Festival di Napoli and in 1959 she made her first appearance at the Sanremo Music Festival, with the song "La vita mi ha dato solo te".[1] In the same year she obtained her first commercial success with the song "Stasera tornerò",[1] which ranked 11 in the Italian Hit Parade.[2] Then she entered the two following editions of the Festival di Sanremo and in 1961 three of her songs entered the Top Ten ("Erano nuvole", "Frenesia" and "Serenatella c'o sì e c'o no").[2] In 1963 she obtained a critical and commercial success with the album Napoli, in which she covered twelve canzoni napoletane re-arranged by Ennio Morricone.[1] In 1965, she made her theatrical debut and from then she focused her career on stage acting and, less prolifically, on films.[1]
