Great orchestras and new trends

A particular focus will be on the great orchestras with some first ever original productions of Musica per Roma.

A real review of this review will be one dedicated to New Trends which presents a refined selection of the most interesting proposals of contemporary jazz, that territory where jazz, soul, funk, hip-hop, electronic and spoken word meet. After a preview with trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire (6/7) the concerts will follow one another in the second half of July with Grammy-nominated drummer Nate Smith (15/7), and Makaya McCraven who are a producer and emerging drummer combo, defined by Down Beat as one of the most influential musicians of the next decade (21/7). The Sons of Kemet, one of the most representative ensembles of nu-jazz (25/7), the visionary multi-instrumentalist and composer Louis Cole (26/7), the Anglo-Guyanese saxophonist Nubya Garcia (27/7), the Italian producer, speaker and Dj Khalab ( 28/7), the innovative Manchester-born group of GoGo Penguin (30/7) will also perform.
