Concert with the jazz orchestra of the “F. A. Bonporti” Conservatory of Trento
Paolo Silvestri – orchestra leader and arranger
The Jazz Big Band was born in 2009 during the jazz music courses, in order to teach to the students how to improvise music in an orchestra.
Over the years the orchestra has worked with the most important repertoires, leaders and arrangers between of the world jazz scene: Kenny Wheeler, Bruno Tommaso, Uri Caine, Paolo Fresu, Giancarlo Gazzani, Gil Goldstein, Maria Schneider.
With these repertoires the orchestra has already performed a lot of concerts organised by the Conservatory itself and other National Jazz Festivals.
