Daniele Tione: Cloaked in Blue

Daniele Tione
Since the early 90s Daniele Tione has taken part to a number of festivals and international musical seasons ( Linguaggi Jazz Torino, Praga Jazz Fest, European Night Oslo, Clusone Jazz, Mantova Jazz, Gorizia Jazz, Shkodra Jazz Fest....) working closely together with some of the finest Italian and international artists (Claudio Fasoli, Tiziana Ghiglioni, Kenny Wheeler, Nicola Campogrande, Gianni Coscia, Jiggs Whigham, Gianni Basso, Franco Cerri, Bob Mover, Manhu Roche, John Riley, Diana Torto....) both as a sideman and as a soloist.
He handles jazz tradition with a balance between writing and improvisation, and the common thread of the original compositions is enriched by a targeted and free reinterpretation of jazz standards. These elements merge in a very heterogeneous planning and recordings : the essentiality of the Piano Solo, the “Double Vision” project with percussions, the synergy with trumpeter Alberto Mandarini (their Duo lasts for 18 years), the “electric” experience with “Mach 6” Sextet.
As part of the “Linguaggi Jazz” Festival in Turin 2010-11 he also wrote and arranged music for septet : “Seven At One Blow”, a jazz trio plus a String Quartet.
