TriesteLovesJazz festival 2010

The TriesteLovesJazz international festival has begun and my cameras are working every afternoon and evening. In the past months I projected and made all the graphic designs and now I'm photographing all the musicians and the stars who will play on our stages in Trieste.

This year we will be visited by three important international artists: Larry Carlton, Esperanza Spalding and The Trio of Oz (Omar Hakim, Rachel Z and Maeve Roice).

Actually I made the first three events, I post some of the pictures I love for the most, but all the set can be viewed going to the TriesteLovesJazz official website (in the entry gate you can see some of the pictures I made last year).

A morning with Joy

Stefania Joy Camiolo is a singer I met last year during the TriesteLovesJazz festival. Here and here some shots of the two concerts she did in Trieste.

Lorenzo Niego: drowning the outback

Some days ago I had the opportunity to make some photographs for Lorenzo Niego a didgeridoo player (one of the first dig players in Italy). He played among the others with Almamegretta and 99 Posse, two south italian bands famous for their political and social activities. 

In this set I wanted to recall to the Blue Mountains, that I saw when I was touring Australia with the band I was drumming during 1993.
