CLICK THE BLUE WORDS FOR FURTHER INFOS, PLEASE ! -----(more music in the mp3 player below)----- Jazz and irony, world music and amusement, dance and improvisation: the music of the "wacky Italian" guitarist Enzo Rocco is a mix of contemporary jazz, free improvisation and folk music from all around the world always dressed with that generous amount of humour and of sense of theatre that always make so tasty his shows. After the eight-years experience of the TUBATRIO - his own group with Giancarlo Schiaffini (one of the fathers of the Italian free-jazz) on trombone/tuba and Ettore Fioravanti on drums (historical member of the Paolo Fresu Quintet) - Rocco conducts the new, ironic, fresh EPPI TRIO with Simone Mauri (clarinets) and Francesco D’Auria (percussions). Besides he continues to play all around the world in the humoristic duet born in 1997 with CARLO ACTIS DATO (elected by Down Beat as one of the best world baritone sax players in the world). From ’99 collaboration with LOL COXHILL and VERYAN WESTON – cd “ London Gigs ” – and other English musicians. On October 2003 first tour (in Latin America) for the ITALIAN SONG PROJECT , a quartet born by a commission of the Italian Cultural Istitute in Buenos Aires and dedicated to the arrangement of the most famous Italian songs. From Janyuary 2004 also a duo with the Scottish drummer TOM BANCROFT , winner of the 2007 BBC Jazz on 3 Innovation Award , was born thanks to the suggestion of the director of the Edinburgh Jazz Festival (concerts in some important festivals in UK: London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Cheltenham, etc.). From Febryary 2005 a new FRENCH TRIO purchased by the “Cri du Port” of Marseille with FREDERIC MONINO (el. bass) and BRUNO TOCANNE (drums). Of course he is always active with top improvisers from everywhere, from Latin America to Japan… “Jazz = funky/neapolitan/electronic/blues mixed with verdi’s/heavy metal/opera mixed with russian/yodel/waltz of santo domingo mixed with an hard japanese noise- lullaby sang by an italian romantic crooner…” As a leader of his own groups he has performed in festivals and clubs in Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, Romania, Sweden, Denmark, Lithuania, Russia, Japan, Indonesia, Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Uruguay. Rocco’s CDs have been reviewed all over the world: Musica Jazz, Jazzit, Ritmo, Drum Club, Guitar Club, Cadence, Coda, All About Jazz, All Music Guide to Jazz, The Improvisor, Improjazz, Jazzman, Jazz Magazine, Cuadernos de Jazz, Jazz Hihyo (Japan), Jazz Quadrat (Russia) and a lot of websites, radios, newspapers and magazines in Europe, Usa, Japan, New Zealand, Latin America. |
