A great jazz festival, the MitJazzFestival, opens the 19th edition of “Jazz al Piccolo - Orchestra Senza Confini”: protagonists of this first appointment are the guest soloists Paolo Damiani, Tullio De Piscopo, Paolo Fresu, Maurizio Giammarco, Enrico Pieranunzi, Marcello Rosa and Giovanni Tommaso. Conductors Riccardo Brazzale and Enrico Intra
Teatro Strehler
MITJazzFestival opens the nineteenth edition of Jazz al Piccolo - Orchestra Senza Confini with, as protagonists, twenty of the most important Italian jazz musicians of all time, the guests of the first two editions of Italian Jazz Graffiti (in 2000 and 2001), in which each of them played, with the Civica Jazz Band, a piece with an original arrangement created around the characteristics of the orchestra and the soloist. A formula which will be proposed again over the three days, almost always with the execution of the piece contained in the double CD Italian Jazz Graffiti, a testimony of the two legendary evenings.
Jazz al Piccolo
The opening concert of MITJazzFestival proposes the presence of an extraordinary representation of jazz musicians from Rome, all legendary figures of our jazz universe and carriers of differing poetic languages, which range from more open European jazz to the great traditions of modern swing. Alongside them, two of the most popular Italian jazz musicians, the trumpet player Paolo Fresu and the drummer Tullio De Piscopo. Each of them will play their own composition or an arrangement of a well-known piece with the orchestra, conducted by Intra and with, as guest, Riccardo Brazzale, leader of the Lydian Sound Orchestra.
On the occasion of MitJazzFestival, the foyer of the Teatro Strehler will be hosting an exhibition dedicated to the caricatures by Adreas Strizzi "Evolvendo in Jazz"
