<p>Has been a wonderful opportunity and a big challange to write this concert dedicated to one the my favorite guitarrist of all the times.</p>Jacopo Mezzanottitag:www.jacopomezzanotti.com,2005:Post/55385172018-12-04T12:14:20+01:002022-05-11T12:15:26+02:00New Fender American Performer Series - Demo<p>Here is the first collaboration for a Fender Product, made for Cutaway Guitar Magazine. Together with Jose Manuel, the director of the magazine, we produced in my new studio a demo and a review of the new Telecaster from the new serie American Performer , launched by Fender the 4th of December 2018.</p>
<p>The first impressions are good. It's a typical Telecaster but with a couple of new tweaks, such as the new Yosemite pick-up, the vintage looking tuners, plus brand new colors that looks awesome. Also nice the Greasebucket tone control, that manage the high frequencies without affecting the low ones. But this was already mounted on the last models.<br>For sure an affordable and versatile instrument for all needs.</p>
<p>We tried the guitar with different sounds and styles. We tried the two pick-up separately plus we add a fuzz on the third track, to show different sound possibilities of the instrument.</p>
<p>If you want to see the Demo follow this Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzM3BnKzW3k</p>Jacopo Mezzanottitag:www.jacopomezzanotti.com,2005:Post/54575522018-10-06T11:25:10+02:002018-10-06T11:25:10+02:00Charity Symphonic Concert<p>Has been a big effort, but after 3 intense months of full time composition I saw the satisfaction of listening and playing my songs with a 75 people orchestra. For this concert I counted with a classical symphonic orchestra plus a big band, and for the last piece of the concert with a kids choir, for a total of 150 musicians on stage.<br>Has been the biggest production I ever made and I couldn't be happier because this big effort is going to help directly kids with autims.</p>
<p>Furthermore I had the pleasure to share the stage with my old friends from the Joe Midnights Space Trio, with Lorenzo Agnifili on piano, with Cuareim Quartet (Federico Nathan, Rodrigo Bauza, Guillaume Latil and Olivier Samouillan), and with the two great Spanish artist Gisela Renes and Nacho Mañó.<br> </p>
<p>Thanks to all the people who supported this special event. Soon will be available the official video of the performance.</p>
<p>I post here one photo:</p>

A little celebration that I want to share.<br> <br>As reminder:<br>"<em>This is a new topic in my blog. I'm going to share here my experience about some of the jam sessions around the world. I know, I'm not a professional writer but I'll do my best to describe and put some lights on what's going on around the mysterious world of jazz jam sessions, and finally to encourage all the places that are still trying to bring some good live music in town to continue in their mission. If you might have suggestions or comment feel free to post it here".</em><br><br>So, my second story is about Café Mercedes, a proper jazz concert room with bar service in the Russafa area of Valencia, Spain.<br>Here the jam sessions use to takes place every Saturday night, but as I said before, the story I'm going to tell was for a special jam happened Wednesday 11 February.<br><br>Let's start from the venue:<br>The club is divided in two main areas: at the entrance you step in to the front room, which is the one with the bar service, that allows the visitors to chill out and drink something before the concerts or during the breaks. If you keep going forward crossing the first area you'll find yourself in the "concert room", medium/small room with some tables, chairs and nice sofas where you can enjoy the concert from any side of the room. I think that you can probably fit a bit more than 50/60 people (guessing...).<br>As soon as you enter you realize that you're not just in a bar with "a" jazz jam session per week. You are in a serious Jazz Club. <br><br>The stage is beautiful, stylish, medium size, good view, and yes: you are not at all in the middle of the "toilette way", not even close by (from the fact that most jazz bars, because of their size, they always have the "stage" somehow in the toilette way).<br>Let say that this is a proper jazz concert place. <br>And...I can't hold anymore the fact that Café Mercedes have two gran pianos. Yes dear pianists friends: 2 GREAT GRAN PIANOS. Shocking stuff for the average jam session bars...<br><br>Anyway as I mentioned before, last week was a special jam session since we had the pleasure to meet here some of the musicians from the Berklee Global Jazz Institute of Boston together with the board of the department: Danilo Peréz, Marco Pignataro and Patricia Zarate. <br>The evening was really nice, first started with a concerts of the fellow musicians from Boston which I found original and interesting, beautiful and fresh compositions and great interplay. High level stuff guys.<br>The jam that followed was more like a welcome celebration, a lot of musicians from Berklee Valencia came to play and the party continued for about an hour until 00:15 if I remember correctly.<br><br>Last week I had the pleasure to share the stage with: Yuri Storione (Piano), Simon Moullier(Vibraphone), Noam Israeli (Drums), Lee Seung-Ha (Double Bass), Michael Wang (Trombone), Timotej Kotnik (Trumpet). <br>We played together: Bag's Groove from Milt Jackson<br>Thanks guys, was nice to meet you.<br>Thanks also to Andrew Marzotto on guitar, next time I hope we'll have time to jam together.<br><br>Here's a picture.<br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/152097/b3def11fd774db76f1a44a606a28713d84f498b2/original/fullsizerender-2.jpg?1424599723" class="size_l justify_center border_" /><br> Jacopo Mezzanottitag:www.jacopomezzanotti.com,2005:Post/35079652015-02-05T18:55:19+01:002017-01-12T16:18:07+01:00Jammin' in Valencia - Café BigorniaThis is a new topic in my blog, I'm going to share my experience about some of the jam sessions around the world.<br>I know, I'm not a really great writer but I'll do my best to describe and put some lights on what's going on around the mysterious world of jazz jam sessions, and finally to encourage all the places that are still trying to bring some good live music in town.<br><br>So my first review/story is about Café Bigornia, a small café in the Valencia city centre, that organize jazz jam sessions every Wednesday from 21:00-23:00.<br><br>This is the first place I've been to jam in the city, is a cosy old style bar, few tables around and a small stage that pop up in front of you at the entrance. Around the stage there are the jazz aficionados with their glass of wine and on the other corner of the bar you can find people that are as well interested in the concert but that they like also to have a little chat with their friends.<br>The first time I've been here I had the pleasure to meet the great cuban drummer Lukmil Perez, amazing musician and really nice person, I think that maybe also because of this experience I always have a beautiful impression when entering this place.<br>Every time I enter the door I can perceive a very welcome atmosphere, the crowd is always interested in listening musicians showing their talent, telling their stories. Also the musicians from their side are always happy to share the stage with new colleagues and see what they can play together.<br><br>Every Wednesday here you can find always some of the best young musicians in town, great cats and also beautiful persons. <br>For sure a place to visit if you are a jazz musician in Valencia or if you like to listen some live jazz sessions with good cats playing.<br><br>Last night had the pleasure to share the stage with: Alexey León (alto), Joan Saldaña Blasco (alto), Rubén Carles (double bass), ....(drums).<br>But many other good musicians where around...like my friend Alex Cesarini and many more<br>We played together: Tu mi delirio (<span dir="auto">César Portillo de la Luz, arranged by Alexey León) and What is this thing called love (Cole Porter).</span><br>I'm going to post here a picture of last night jam session.<br><br><br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/152097/fd08e8a8fbe7d21b2651c575cbb3c0834b9acbf5/original/fullsizerender.jpg?1423158289" class="size_l justify_center border_" /><br>Thanks guys was a lot of fun!<br><br>See you soon.<br><br>J.Jacopo Mezzanottitag:www.jacopomezzanotti.com,2005:Post/33596702014-12-04T13:26:55+01:002017-01-12T16:18:07+01:00Videoclip shooting in RomeHas been an amazing experience to shoot the new videoclip with my great friends and musicians Denis Fattori, Carmine Ioanna and Alex Gorbi, under the direction of Ado Hasanovic.<br>We've been shooting in a beautiful location near Rome, at "Mente Locale", an old music pub in Palestrina, old city upon one of the roman's hills.<br>Here a special thanks to all the crew who contribute to the realization of this project: Andrea, Valentina, Nicolas, Silvia, Eloisa, Matteo and Matteo and Fabrizio.
