Luca Aquino
Born:
Luca Aquino is one of the most talented Italian trumpet players, known for innovative proposals and for his trumpet sound. Born in the town of Benevento, in Southern Italy, he was mainly self-taught when he began to play the trumpet at the age of nineteen. For two years he abandoned the practice of the instrument to pursue a Master degree in Economics. The love for the sound of Miles Davis and Chet Baker brought him back to the study of trumpet and led him to devote himself completely to music. In 2007 Universal Music published his first album as a leader, “Sopra Le Nuvole”; and a year later he recorded “Lunaria”, with guest Roy Hargrove and Maria Pia De Vito, for which he won the “Top Jazz” award by the Italian magazine Musica Jazz. In 2009, he recorded in the ancient Turkish bath of Skopje (Macedonia) “Amam”, then “TSC “in a church in the Netherlands. In 2010, he recorded “Icaro Solo”, a project for solo trumpet and electronics, in a church in Benevento. After creating the festival Riverberi, he initiated collaborations with musicians and artists; including Mimmo Paladino that led to the registration of “Chiaro”, an album in trio with a Norwegian rhythm section, featuring Lucio Dalla as a special guest. In 2012, after a major live project with Jon Hassell, for the Church of Saint Augustine in Benevento, he joined the quartet of the percussionist Manu Katché and recorded two albums with them. In 2013 along with the accordionist Carmine Ioanna he recorded “aQustico” for Tuk Music and embarked with him on a world tour. 2015 is the year of his seventh album as bandleader: “OverDOORS”, a personal tribute to his favorite band, The Doors.

Dario Miranda: La Dormiente
by Glenn Astarita
Jazz is not just music; it is a conversation and Dario Miranda is one smooth-talking storyteller. His latest album, La Dormiente, is not merely a collection of tracks; it is an auditory odyssey that pirouettes between the traditional and the avant-garde with the grace of a classically trained dancer wearing electric sneakers. From the ...

Un giorno nuovo per Giovanni Guidi
by Libero Farnè
Quando nell'aprile 2021 intervistai Giovanni Guidi per questa rivista, concludemmo analizzando i suoi progetti musicali di allora, in particolare il giovane gruppo “italiano" Little Italy e quello “internazionale" che tributò un omaggio alla musica di Gato Barbieri. Nel 2021, oltre a Ojos De Gato, edito dalla CAM Jazz, uscirono anche due lavori in duo, uno con ...
Luca Aquino: Lunaria 2

Over the decades, Italian trumpeter Luca Aquino has delivered intelligent and thought-provoking music which, if one allows immersion in it, yields a treasure trove of beauty. He is a soulfully introspective artist whose lush playing and textural compositions channel, and at times rival, that of players such as Chet Baker, Tomasz Stanko, Roy Hargrove (with whom ...
Emiliano D'Auria Quartet feat. Luca Aquino: In-Equilibrio
by Neri Pollastri
Disco piuttosto tradizionale, che alterna momenti ora giocosi, come l'iniziale “Le cirque des regardes," ora malinconici, come “Sergej," ora più schiettamente lirici, come “In-equilibrio" e “Mindfullness," tali da mettere a frutto le qualità narrative dell'ospite Luca Aquino, ma anche quelle pianistiche del leader della formazione, Emiliano D'Auria. Le atmosfere vengono vivacizzate da un impasto di colori ...
