SUMMARY:Jazz in the Park
DESCRIPTION:Cettina Donato is an internationally acclaimed classical and jazz pianist\, composer\, arranger and conductor. Her highly original work often blurs the lines between genres: from jazz to classical\, and from symphonic music to theatrical music. In 2011\, while based in Boston (MA\, USA)\, Donato formed the Cettina Donato Orchestra\, a full size jazz big band with a string quartet featuring musicians from all over the world.  Across the ocean\, in Italy\, Donato is the only woman who conducts classical symphony orchestras performing a jazz repertoire while also contributing her own arrangements as well.  Cettina Donato conducted the Bari Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra (Bari\, Puglia)\, the Vittorio Emanuele Symphony Orchestra (Messina\, Sicily)\, the Lucca Jazz Orchestra (Lucca\, Tuscany)\, the Molfetta Youth Symphony Orchestra (Bari\, Puglia)\, the New Talents Jazz Orchestra (Rome). Along with her many large ensemble works\, she has regularly collaborated in a trio and quartet setting (as a bandleader) with some of the most renowned musicians of the international jazz scene (Eliot Zigmund\, Stefano Di Battista\, Fabrizio Bosso and many others). Donato was awarded the prestigious JazzIt prize (Italy) as Best Arranger in 2013\, 2016\, 2018 and 2019. In 2017 Donato released Persistency-The New Project featuring drummer Eliot Zigmund. Donato’s other works were released in 2008 (Pristine\, Cettina Donato Quintet)\, 2012 (Crescendo\, Cettina Donato Orchestra)\, 2015 (Third\, Cettina Donato trio)\, 2019 (Piano 4 Hands)\, 2021 (I Siciliani -Vero Succo Di Poesia-). Donato’s 7th new project\, called MITO\, came out in May 2023. It’s a concept album about the Greek Myth: the proofs of life in our times are rooted in the myth that unveils itself\, and therefore is topical\, precursor of contemporary society. Stories made of blood\, passions\, of what is rational and irrational\, gods that descend to earth to save human beings\, or equally to ruin their lives only because of their own idleness or indolence. There is no emotion of which the myth does not tell through its characters. Donato graduated from Berklee College Of Music (Boston\, MA\, USA) with degrees in Jazz Composition and from Conservatory “A. Corelli”\, Sicily (Italy) in Classical Piano\, Jazz Music\, Musical Didactic\, from University of Messina in Social Psychology. Donato’s artistic career is accented by teaching Jazz Piano courses at the Conservatory “N. Piccinni” in Bari (Puglia\, Italy). \nPERFORMANCE DETAILS:\nWhen: 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM\nVenue: Rose Kennedy Greenway | North End Parks\nAddress: Corner of Cross Street & Hanover Street\nFREE! \n \nExperience the magic of live jazz under the open sky with NEMPAC’s Jazz in the Park series.
