And the most famous jazz musicians of the 900 were Frank Sinatra, Chik Korea, Joe Lovano, Tony Scott and Jimmy Giuffre, among others, of course, all Sicilians. So here
that Ciuriciurijazz Scarcella want to stress these connections, fusing instruments, sounds and rhythms with jazz melodies Sicilian, inevitable in this context, folk instruments such as bagpipes, or the friscaletto marranzano. Pieces of Sicilian folk tradition in jazz, then, but also songs that fall for different reasons in the spirit of the project.
