Milan prosecutors on Wednesday
asked that rocker Gianna Nannini be sent to trial for allegedly
evading 3.75 million euros in taxes.
A preliminary hearing was set for March 3.
Nannini, 60, is the elder sister of former Formula One
racing driver Alessandro Nannini.
The singer-songwriter, probably best known for her 1986
song, 'Bello e Impossibile' (Handsome and Impossible), has had
hits in various European countries.
Among her international collaborations, in 1987 she
performed Brecht and Weill's Threepenny Opera with Sting and
Jack Bruce in Hamburg.
In 1990 she and Edoardo Bennato sang 'Un'Estate Italiana'
(An Italian Summer), the official song of the soccer World Cup
Italia '90.
In September 2006 she recorded the single 'Ama Credi e Vai'
(Love, Believe and Go) with Andrea Bocelli.
