Seven decades of an amazing career, an insurmountable musical talent, which shone and continues to shine, make up the fascinating life of the legendary singer
Dolly Rebecca Parton was born on January 19, 1946, in Smoky Mountain, East Tennessee, United States.

Music was her gift. A gift he discovered at a very young age. “I’ve been rhyming ever since I can remember forming words”she would later confess in her autobiography, “Then I made songs with them”. So, at the age of 6, with her uncle’s guitar and with the inspiration of a corn cob doll, which her mother made for her, she will create her first composition, entitled “Little Tiny Tassletop”.
