"JAF" Jazz Accordion Festival, Castelfidardo - Italyby AWW |
 |
  CASTELFIDARDO - From Friday to Sunday, the Jazz Accordion Festival returns with a full house of performances, capturing the spring and festive mood that is in the air. "This is the first festival of the year to be held under the aegis and seal of quality of the P.I.F., the International Accordion Award, offering all accordion and jazz enthusiasts three days of concerts and two JAF sessions of the highest level. A unique festival that, thanks to the imprint and research of artistic director Simone Zanchini, embodies the natural essence of jazz in the movement of the bellows and in the experimentation that once again demonstrates the sonic power of the accordion," explains councillor Ruben Cittadini.Two locations, three artists for three events with free admission that combine originality, energy and elegance. The opening entrusted to a young emerging artist of Tuscan origin, Sara Calvanelli (picture above left), at the On Stage club in via Soprani on Friday at 9.30 pm. An unprecedented jazz solo concert with a deeply personal female imprint: from the tradition of ancient songs to free improvisation, an unusual mix of voice, classical accordion and electronic effects. On Saturday at the On Stage (9.30 pm) the Roberto Gervasi trio will perform: Roberto Gervasi (accordion - picture above right), Davide Inguaggiato (double bass) and Fabrizio Giambanco (drums), the protagonists of "My Jazzy Accordion", a tribute to giants such as Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell and Frank Marocco. For the final performance on Sunday 19th, the scene shifts to the Salone degli Stemmi for the afternoon concert (6 p.m.) by French soloist David Venitucci (picture below): a performer and composer of fine quality and technique, who generates a unique and surprising world of sound. Admission to all concerts is free. The Friday and Saturday evenings will culminate at the On Stage in the JAF Session open to guests and musicians. Info at Pro Loco Castelfidardo phone: 0717822987 |
