THE SOUTH AFRICAN TOUR
NOVEMBER 2019
“I’ve been in South Africa only one time in April 2019. It was an unforgettable musical and human experience. It was an honor to play my music with some of the best musicians from South Africa and to play with the Unisa Big Band that played an arrangement of mine from my last unreleased project Rebirth that will be released in 2020.
I will perform on November 29 and 30 in two concerts in guitar trio with a rhythm section composed by some of the most talented young musicians of the South African scene, Riley Giandhari on drums, Brayden Hore and Freeman Gumede on bass.
The tour is produced by Inner Urge Srls and supported by Puglia Sounds as part of the “Programme Puglia Sounds Export 2019”. I’m excited to come back in South Africa to play my new guitar trio project “Rebirth: the new project of Fabrizio Savino”, I’ll play in Durban at Alliance Française and at The Chairman.”

ABOUT
Born in Bari in 1981 Fabrizio Savino is one of Italy’s most interesting jazz musicians.
In 2009 Fabrizio published his first album “Metropolitan Prints” featuring Luca Aquino which received good reviews in Italy and abroad.
In 2010-2011, Fabrizio attended various seminars at Tuscia in Jazz, studying and playing with Dado Moroni, Antonio Sanchez, Tony Monaco, David Liebman, Eddie Gomez, Flavio Boltro and working as assistant of Kurt Rosenwinkel.
In the same period Fabrizio moved to New York where he shared the stage with some of the best musicians in the local scene and attended also other masterclasses with Joe Diorio, John Scofield, Mike Stern, Dario Deidda, Peter Bernstein and Mike Moreno.
His second album, entitled “Aram” (Alfamusic), was released in 2012. This recording includes the presence of some of the best musicians of the Italian jazz scene as Enrico Zanisi, Luca Alemanno and Dario Congedo, and was widely reviewed in jazz and music magazines all over the world.
“Aram” got the nomination “like it!” from the Italian jazz magazine “Jazzit” and at the same time a double page on the magazine.
In January 2016, his new album, “Gemini”, was released by A.MA Records.
This recording marks a significant step in his artistic career where he challenges himself with one of the most difficult ensembles in music: the guitar trio, which features Luca Alemanno on double bass and Gianlivio Liberti on drums.
“Gemini” got some nominations as the “Best 100 European jazz albums” according to “Jazzit” magazine and “Album of the week” by the famous radio show Fahrenheit on the National Public Broadcasting Company of Italy RAI Radio Tre.
During his career he has shared the stage with some of the greatest artists of the jazz scene such as: Vladimir Kostadinovic, Flavio Boltro, Tony Monaco, Sebastian Merk, Luca Alemanno, Gaetano Partipilo, Antonello Salis, Luca Aquino, Joel Holmes, Cédric Hanriot and Simon Moullier and many others playing in many jazz clubs and festivals around the world including Petrovac Jazz Festival, Locus Festival, Jazzit Festival, Bari in Jazz, Locomotive Jazz Festival, Peroncino Jazz Festival, Tuscia in Jazz Festival and Unisa Jazz Festival.

My Music
GEMINI
AMA RECORDS, 2016
“[…] Fabrizio Savino, a deep connoisseur of jazz and classical music, is an artist able to create an almost perfect mix with electronic music: the result is a modern sound, avant-garde, cultured and at the same time capable to create an emotional charge presents in each ten tracks of Gemini. It is an album that absorbs completely the listener opening up unknown dimensions. […]”
Guido Biondi, Il fatto quotidiano
ARAM
ALFA MUSIC, 2012
“[…] Opening with Into My Mind we have that intimacy that borders on an ambient quality that allows Savino to paint lyrical portraits of tunes for the listeners imagination. The Persian release title Aram roughly translates to peace or serenity and is the perfect example of a harmonic exploratory for an artist to stretch out and find the lost chord, the missing progression, the melodic soul that completes not just the musician but the listener as well. A challenging recording where boundaries are pushed and comfort zones no longer exist. Melody move into a variety of odd meters and abstraction while never losing accessibility. Black Hat is another intriguing tune that while left of center would seem like a standard in waiting.[…]”
Brent Black, Critical Jazz
METROPOLITAN PRINTS
ALFA MUSIC, 2009
“[…] What I immediately noticed about Fabrizio Savino is a musical vision that let him use heterogeneous ingredients with good taste; something that he does very well because his composer aspects join naturally to that of instrumentalist. In the various cd tracks, supported by very good musicians to whom I give my compliments, Fabrizio mixes sounds and colors leaving out his influences filtrated by his own sensitivity. I suggest to listen to his cd. […]”
