tell 9 decades for a few free reeds and voice – John Coscia, accordion and Silvia Bandi, voce
John Coscia: a cornerstone of Italian jazz. Born in Alexandria in 1931, he approaches this genre since he was a boy, when cousin Aristide, Italian champion footballer with Roma (anno 1942), he gives him some vinyls with the songs of the great American composers of the time. He completes classical studies (in high school he is a classmate of Umberto Eco with whom he will weave a deep and lasting friendship) and become a lawyer, but without ever abandoning the passion for music and for the instrument of which he will become an absolute virtuoso. He collaborates with the best Italian musicians and composers (Giorgio Gaslini is part of this infinite list, Luciano Berio, Gianluigi Trovesi, Enrico Rave, Renato Sellani, Paolo Fresu, Francesco Guccini and Adriano Celentano) and performs in the most prestigious international jazz festivals.

Belleville Stompers
Belleville Stompers: is an acoustic jazz trio that offers a repertoire of Manouche music, genre that sees its origins in the Paris of the thirties.
The musical project was born from Mattia Garavaglia's passion for this genre, rock/blues guitarist. Passion that began more than fifteen years ago listening to a trio of street artists: intrigued by their oval-mouthed guitars and captured by the fast rhythm of the swing to which virtuoso solos were superimposed, thus he began to discover the world of Jazz Manouche and self-taught the guitar technique of Django. For several years Mattia attended the Django Reinhardt Festival in Samois Sur Seine, meeting point for fans of the genre from all over the world, where in jam sessions you have the opportunity to learn the tricks of the trade from the most gifted guitarists. He performs with various formations in street festivals, jazz clubs and venues. Moved near Borgomanero, Mattia is looking for a rhythm guitarist to create a stable formation that can grow and make a real search for style and sound: meets so in 2017 Daniele Radaelli, guitarist and dixieland banjo player with a solid accompaniment experience and a good culture on the origins of Jazz and begins to share passion and study. Massimo Erbetta gets involved, double bass player with a more modern Jazz oriented experience, that accepts the challenge of a return to its origins, a drier but essential way of playing to support the rhythmic work in the absence of the drums.
