The Trio
Paolo Damiani and Antonio Jasevoli have been playing and recording together for some time; an unlikely meeting on paper, the two usually move in very different fields – the double bass player (Damiani) has invented an original and European language, moving jazz aesthetics into non-traditional contexts, and the guitarist (Jasevoli), has developed the great lesson of the best Rock sounds (Cream, Hendrix, Beck…). Progressing through the knowledge and practice of the language of jazz and classical music, each has created very personal poetics that cross different territories. Yet together, they manage to imagine new scenarios and connections, intuitive paths in which to seek affinity and contiguity.
Elena, winner of the AIR 2024 project announced by M.I.D.J., has been active in the national and international music scene for several years. She is a Jazz Singing teacher at the Conservatory and has curated the Music and Movement Laboratory for the National Dance Academy of Rome for several years.
