Leggera is a studio album by Italian singer Mina, released on 17 October 1997 by PDU.
Critical reception
Mario Luzzatto Fegiz of Corriere della Sera noted that it is "a good, diverse, funny, believable disc created to once again demonstrate the virtuoso Mina's capabilities, although it is probably a little less commercial than the previous album Cremona."[4]

In the song "Grigio" there is a so-called hidden track "Suona ancora" (Mina's solo version), at the end of which you can hear the door open and a male voice says "Permesso?" (May I?). This voice belongs to Adriano Celentano, and the situation itself is a hint of a joint album Mina Celentano, which will be released in 1998.
