Described as...

Pianist and composer Giacomo Aula was born and raised in Lagonegro, Italy. He has performed and/or recorded with Eliot Zigmund, James Newton, Larry Schneider, Peter Erskine, Enrico Rava, Paul Fresu and a host of Italian Jazz stars. Aula's romantic sensibility and passionate style brings to the classic format of the Jazz quartet a quality reminiscent of the late great Art Tatum. His technical virtuosity, combined with his background and influence by Italian composers such as Nino Rota and Enrico Pieranunzi, gives way to a fresh, compelling and international look at contemporary Jazz.
