Tazio Forte Quartet Swing and other kind of music, top level: two guitars,double bass, accordionist

Tazio Forte, a classically trained pianist and accordionist passionate about jazz-manouche and traditional South American music, in 2017 meets the two guitarists Francesco Greppi and Tobia Davico with whom a musical partnership marked by the search for a new repertoire and new sounds was born. Since 2022 together with Davide Ritelli, a double bass player of vast experience especially in the sphere of Balkan music, the musical project “Tazio Forte Quartet” was born, which has its roots in the typical jazz-manouche sounds, but which gathers and embraces different influences - from the traditional musics of the four corners of the world as well as from modern jazz. The constant work of research and renewal in the choice of repertoire is the key to give a wider scope to improvisational exploration, on the border between tradition and avant-garde.
