Ferdinando Romano

Ferdinando Romano is a doublebass player, composer and improviser. His reputation has increasingly grown since he was awarded in the Top Jazz 2020 (Musica Jazz’s annual Critics Poll) as “Best Italian Rising Star”, and he is now considered as one of the most interesting new artists of the Italian and European scene. Recently he got the SIAE (the Italian Copyright Association) Award, given every year to musicians that distinguished themselves for the originality of their compositions.

“Totem”, his first album as a leader, was released for the Norwegian label Losen Records and has been voted in the Top Jazz 2020 in the category of the “Best Italian Albums”.
