MARCO PACASSONI – ENZO BOCCIERO
The way these two musicians interact, better known as “interplay”, is something they developed in more than ten years of partnership.
This musical relationship has strengthened thanks to the work with the “Marco Pacassoni Quartet”, which includes three albums of original compositions “Finally”, “Happiness” and “Grazie” and a new one “Frank & Ruth”, an homage to the music of Frank Zappa and Ruth Underwood that will come out within 2018.
Important to note that “Happiness” has been selected by the american journalist Brent Black as one of the best albums released in 2015, remaining in iTunes Charts for months, and “Grazie” has been defined by the journalist Steven Cerra (from “Jazz Profiles”) as a “very rewarding musical experience”.
