My songs
One of the most appreciated features of Enrico Pieranunzi is the originality of his own compositions. Many songs are performed and recorded by musicians all over the world and attract a varied audience through their fascinating narrative power. Night bird”, “Don’t forget the poet” ”Les amants”, “Je ne sais quoi”, “Come rose dai muri” are part of today’s program together with other evergreen pieces of his huge repertoire.

June 10th
New songs
The concert offers a selection of songs composed by Pieranunzi during these last monthes. An acoustic journey that retraces the invisible story of many days spent in an unexpected and difficult situation.
These “new songs” will be a debut for the audience, never performed before.
Besides the pleasure to share them with his audience, Pieranunzi hopes that the sounds of these songs and all the sounds composed during the quarantine can spread very soon even better than before.
ENRICO PIERANUNZI
Pianist, composer, arranger, born in Rome in 1949, Enrico Pieranunzi is one of the most famous and popular musicians of the international jazz scene. His formative years embraced both classical and jazz piano. Emerging in the early ‘70s, his lyrical approach quickly brought him to the forefront of the European scene and, in 1984, he formed a trio with Marc Johnson and Joey Baron, the first of several outstanding groups with American musicians – this trio was said to be “one of the very top tier trios working today”.
Pieranunzi has worked – in concert or in studio – with artists such as Chet Baker, Lee Konitz, Paul Motian, Charlie Haden, Chris Potter, Marc Johnson, Joey Baron. He was voted several times Musician of the Year in the Italian magazine Musica Jazz critic’s poll and he was (in 1997) recipient of the “Django d’Or” Award for Best European Jazz Musician.
