Enrico Intra

Cinedelic presents Jazz in Fabbrica by Enrico Intra. Recorded in Ratti’s Factory in Guanzate (Como) on October 31, 1972. Pianist, composer, arranger and conductor, among the most important ones in the history of European jazz, Enrico Intra has developed a poetics aiming at the encounter betwee the most exquilisitely jazz language and contemporary music of a cultural matrix, and for this reason he was among the first Italian musicians to develop a “European” concept of jazz. Nuova Civiltà suite, certainly one of his best-known compositions, often also interpreted by Gerry Mulligan, deeply combines blues and tradition, adhering to the most radical trends of the music scene. A challange to established formal and expressive schemes.
