About Me |

| Giovanni Mazzarino was born on May 26 th 1965 in Messina. He began playing the piano at the very early age of 5. He was self-educated and showed exceptional musical talent. From 1973 to 1975, he studied classical piano which he had previously forsaken because of his great attraction to listening and studying the great American orchestras of Swing. In 1988 he started his professional career with one of the most important Italian musicians: Enzo Randisi. Between 1990 and 1991, he became the pianist of the "Orchestra Jazz Siciliana" and he performed in two tours for the institute promoting Jazz Music of the Massimo Theater in Palermo. In 1991, he recorded his first CD, with the extraordinary trumpet player Flavio Boltro :"SILENCE PLEASE" for the Splash Records, receiving great reviews by critics especially for his arrangements. In 1994, he recorded another CD :"THINKING MILES" for Ram Records featuring the drummer Ettore Fioravanti. In 1995, he started collaboration with Joan Cartwright, touring Europe. They recorded a CD "FEELIN' GOOD" (Modern Times) for which he did the arrangements and thus becoming also the musical director of the band. From the 1997 to 2000, he taught in the Conservatory of Music: Piano Jazz and Jazz Theory in Caltanissetta(Sicily). October 1997, a new CD was released by the Giovanni Mazzarino Trio "I REMEMBER MILES" for the Anaglyphos Record with Nello Toscano (bass) and Paolo Mappa (drums).
