Live from Italy, exceptional trio of Italian jazz artists for a one-of-a-kind performance: pianist Rita Marcotulli, double bassist Michelangelo Scandroglio, and saxophonist Mirko Guerrini. This concert brings together three generations of musical voices, each with their own distinct approach and shared passion for lyrical improvisation. With Marcotulli’s evocative touch on piano, Scandroglio’s adventurous grounding on bass, and Guerrini’s expressive saxophone work, the evening promises a dynamic blend of intuition, depth, and artistry.
Rita Marcotulli, a cornerstone of European jazz, is celebrated for her elegant compositions and ability to fuse jazz with classical, folk, and cinematic elements. Her playing is both fluid and emotionally resonant, creating soundscapes that feel deeply personal yet universally moving. Michelangelo Scandroglio, a rising star in the contemporary jazz scene, brings a bold and thoughtful energy to the trio, balancing rhythmic complexity with melodic sensitivity. His youthful vision and compositional flair have made him one of the most exciting new voices in European jazz.
Adding a vibrant layer to this collaboration is Mirko Guerrini, an internationally renowned saxophonist and composer whose work straddles jazz, world music, and classical traditions. With performances alongside legends such as Stefano Bollani and Paul Grabowsky, Guerrini brings a spirited curiosity and technical brilliance to every project. His warm tone and storytelling approach on saxophone provide a perfect counterpart to Marcotulli’s piano and Scandroglio’s bass, weaving a rich tapestry of sound that is both spontaneous and deeply communicative.
This rare meeting of minds at Cardea offers audiences an intimate window into the beauty of musical conversation at its highest level. Whether through original compositions or reimagined standards, the trio’s performance will explore the full spectrum of jazz expression—from introspective moments to vibrant, rhythmic interplay
