The event

Mimma Pisto's voice meets the jazz arrangements of Ettore Carucci at the piano, with Stefano Nunzi on double bass and Andrea Nunzi on drums. The concert does more than replay Burt Bacharach's songs: it runs them through the language of jazz, working with their harmonic, rhythmic and interpretive possibilities.

The repertoire includes titles such as «Close to You», «I'll Never Fall in Love Again», «This Guy's in Love with You» and «Alfie», made famous in part by Dionne Warwick and Dusty Springfield. Beneath instantly familiar melodies, Bacharach's writing hides unexpected chord changes and sophisticated modulations, and that richness suits a jazz reading.

A singer and composer from Basilicata, Pisto graduated in jazz from the Bologna Conservatory and has worked with Riccardo Fassi, Mario Biondi and Dario Deidda.
