Finally Washingtonian jazz enthusiasts will get a chance to
experience a live performance by two of the most interesting
talents of Italian music: Giovanni Guidi (piano) and
Gianluca Petrella (trombone), presenting the album “Soupstar”,
a name that reflects the improvisational alchemy between their
instruments. The concert will allow us to discover the unusual
connection between these two musicians, who can successfully
create their own tunes or enjoy themselves on classics
like “Over The Rainbow” and “Prelude to a Kiss”.
Endorsed by the great Enrico Rava, Steve Coleman, Paolo Fresu,
Marcus Rojas and Carla Bley, Giovanni Guidi and Gianluca Petrella
have established a duet that sees no limits when it comes to
exploring nearby territories in sound.
This concert is presented in partnership with
CIDIM (Comitato Nazionale Italiano Musica) and
WPFW, which will broadcast the performance live on 89.3 FM.
