La Bottega Dell'Arte, an Italian pop music group, was formed in Rome in 1974. The band consisted of Piero Calabrese on keyboards and vocals, Massimo Calabrese on bass guitar, guitar, and vocals, Romano Musumarra on keyboards, flute, guitars, and vocals, Fernando Ciucci on guitars and vocals, and Alberto Bartoli on drums. They released their debut single in 1974 and signed with EMI Italiana, and their album Come due bambini went on to rank among the top five best-selling albums of 1975. In 1980, La Bottega Dell'Arte entered the main competition at the Sanremo Music Festival with the song "Più di una canzone". The group disbanded in 1985, with members pursuing solo careers as producers, composers, and musicians. Notable albums include La Bottega dell'Arte (1975), Dentro (1977), L'avventura (1979), and Forza 4 (1984). In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Alberto Bartoli and Massimo Calabrese revived the group and in 2018, the lineup was refreshed with new members.
