Andrea Rea, is yet another confirmation of the prolific talent of the Neapolitan capital.

The result is a collection of features that make Andrea Rea recognized as original composer and artist and shining example of the high class reached by the Italian pianists on the international panorama . Born at Pomigliano D’Arco in 1983 and winner of the International Massimo Urbani Award in 2007, boasts collaborations at the highest levels: among them Joe Lovano, Max Ionata, Jerry Weldon, Gege Telesforo, Maria Pia De Vito, Stefano Di Battista …

Arioso …

An autobiographical film that, through its facilities, tells us the soul sometimes carefree and sometimes restless, which is always on the lookout, so relentless, of a personal sound, and a balance between the classical tradition and jazz in Europe.
