During this concert, we will pay homage to silent cinema with music and video projections. A phenomenal jazz pianist Livio Minafra will fill the air with improvisations and modal harmonies and fly the audience to the moon to pay respects to the silent cinema genius Georges Méliès and his 1902 film “A Trip to the Moon”, a fantastic voyage of the human imagination.

Livio Minafra won the important Italian Top Jazz prize in 2005, 2008 and 2011. At 38 years of age, he has toured and performed on all continents. Minafra primarily performs solo but has also engaged in many prestigious collaborations as a pianist, composer, arranger and accordionist with such groups as the MinAfric Orchestra, Kocani Orkestar, Canto General, Radiodervish….

“Minafra’s is a music of exchange and contamination, rich in oriental echoes, of minimalistic contents, with ethnic references. You can define it as jazz but it is a limitative definition,” says journalist Amedeo Furfaro about him.
