Read "Gianluca Petrella Quartet" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Teatro Politeama - Manerbio - 09.11.2006 Bisogna possedere una certa dose di incoscienza per salire sul palcoscenico in perfetta solitudine, se si eccettua la rassicurante compagnia del fido trombone, e invece che iniziare l’atteso concerto con il resto del gruppo, scendere le scale, posizionarsi a strettissimo contatto con il pubblico, iniziare a soffiare aliti di note ...

Gianluca Petrella: Indigo4

Read "Indigo4" reviewed by Jim Santella


Trombonist Gianluca Petrella leads an ambitious quartet that recalls the fun Lester Bowie gave us through his Brass Fantasy.
