In the Italian chart, the album debuted on the second position, losing to L'eccezione by Carmen Consoli, in total, the album stayed on the chart for 14 weeks,[7] in the annual rating the album took the 32nd position.[8] It was also able to get into the European Top 100 Albums at the 47th position.[9] In Italy, the album became double platinum.[10]
Critical reception
The album received generally positive reviews.[11][12][13][14][15] Gino Castaldo from La Repubblica called the album "a polished record with very diverse arrangements compared to what was in the past" and found Mina's desire to "return to the search for quality songs to enhance the culture of Italian song."[3] Pippo Piarulli from Giornale di Brescia wrote that "on the one hand, the album is aimed at strengthening Mina's image as the only great performer of an Italian melodic song, and on the other hand, it strives for cooperation of a more refined artistic level than in the past, as well as in order to offer itself to a more attentive audience to the author's song".[16]
