I saw Stefano Bollani in Tel-Aviv last year. He is an Italian jazz pianist from Milan. Although he is young, he already has a pretty big following. His quintet is called “I visionari.” I definitely recommend checking him out.
Here is one of his funniest pictures, showing him singing into the piano. (Do you know why everybody is singing into the piano these days? It’s the overtones!)
Below is a link to Caravan, which Bollani is playing here with Martial Solal. If you think it is a different tune, wait a minute… Caravan is just around the corner. I intended to post his version of the famous tune, “Azzuro,” which is available on YouTube, but the quality is not that great. Still you can check him him out on YouTubne. I like “Azzuro” best. It is so smooth…
Here is the link to Caravan.
And here is Stefano Bollani’s site.
Enjoy.
