Gio Rossi has been hired from Igor Prado band for a 10 days tour in Europe. Among other things, the band will also perform at legendary blues club Banana Peel, Jazztime Hildesheim and Baltic Blues Festival. Igor Prado is one of the most appreciate blues guitar player of the new generation. For detailed informations please visit Igor Prado's page on My Space : www.myspace.com/igorprado

Collettivo Mazzulata Vocals, the small version of CM Acoustic, will be perform in Borgo Ticino for the local summer event. This time you will see Gio Rossi playing bass and percussion at the same time, with a sort of improbable set of drums to be played with the feet while playing the bass guitar. Then, accordion, sax and vocals will do the rest. A new challenge for Collettivo Mazzulata !

Yes, I can't wait anymore. Hundreds of students and musicians always ask me to publish the book containing my jazz harmony lessons, with the humor that I always use in my lessons. Ok, the good new is that I'm working on it. Chapter 5 is finished. The bad new is : probably the book will have at least 20 chapters, so I have to work on it for a while. Can you wait a little bit ? I promise to work hardly, sitting in front of my Mac's keyboard until the book will be finished, ok ?
Then, the book is written in Italian language, and for now I can't take account of publishing an english version. Maybe one day. Who knows..
So, in few months the book will be ready. Its content will be based on the one I wrote for Jazzitalia.net, where the first lesson has almost 100.000 visitors. Of course, I'm considerably expanding chapters and contents.
I have the intention to publish the book by myself, but I'm available in taking account of serious proposals from book publishers. In case you are interested in viewing some chapters, you can write me an
