From Nu-Jazz to Pop, from Bossa Nova to Soul: Papik live in Amalfi in Jazz. A great evening dedicated to contamination.

A great evening of live music in the spirit of contamination, in an exploration of languages ​​that is influenced by international influences.

A soundscape that opens up to refined grooves and fusion, lounge and smooth jazz rhythms.

Sophisticated sounds for the third appointment of “Amalfi in Jazz”, the event included in the wider summer program promoted by the municipal administration led by Mayor Daniele Milano.

Friday 22nd July at 22pm Piazza Duomo will be the backdrop of rare beauty for the Papik concert, the project born from an idea by the Roman producer Nerio Poggi, author and arranger who boasts prestigious collaborations, such as the one with Mario Biondi in the albums 'Handful of soul' and 'I love you more', as well as Matt Bianco, Sarah Jane Morris, Jason Donovan, Amanda Lear. His songs are among the most played hits on the radio.

“Amalfi in Jazz is imagined as a journey, which winds from the pure American jazz of the origins to the most pop nuances. Papik manages to integrate and cross different sounds, creating an absolutely original and recognizable artistic identity – underlines the mayor Daniele Milano – He will be accompanied by Alan Scaffardi and an orchestra of very talented musicians, who will know how to overwhelm the audience. The feedback that the festival is registering is very encouraging. You can feel the desire to be together experiencing moments of beauty and great music”.

In Amalfi Papik will perform original songs and covers taken from the "Cocktail" album series, dedicated to the great artists of Italian music such as Bruno Martino, Mina, Lucio Battisti, revisited with a personal sound, between refined and at the same time engaging rhythms, a formula sure success.

"Amalfi in Jazz is a Festival that has always been highly appreciated and highly anticipated, which is characterized by the international musical proposal and the quality of the projects – explains Enza Cobalto, Councillor for Culture – This edition is giving us incredible emotions, for the dialogue that the musicians have created, from time to time, with the public. This encounter with the artists becomes a human exchange. We are proud that some bands have preferred Amalfi to other Italian shows, attracted by the charm of its incredible historical past and by the experience they can live on the Amalfi Coast ".

On stage, a 7-piece formation, with Nerio Poggi on keyboards, Fabio Tullio on saxophone, Massimo Guerra on trumpet, Alfredo Bochicchio on guitar, Gianni Polimeni on drums, Alessandro Sanna on bass and guest star Alan Scaffardi on vocals, a great soul voice and collaborator of Mario Biondi.

The debut album Rhythm of Life Irma Records dates back to 2009 and contains the single Staying For Good sung by Alan Scaffardi. The track is very successful and is broadcast in heavy rotation by the largest national radio networks (Radio Deejay, Radio Capital, Radio Montecarlo, Radio 105, Radio Rai etc.)

Prolific years, rich in productions and collaborations. The song Sign Of Your Love sung by Alan Scaffardi, contributes to confirm the internationality of Papik's project, becoming the title track of the new album by Australian singer Jason Donovan distributed worldwide by Polydor Records.

Papik's fame in the land of the Rising Sun led them to play in May 2012 at the Blue Note international jazz temple in Tokyo. In the same year, he collaborates with the legendary English band Matt Bianco in their latest CD Hideaway arranging two songs, Too Late for Love and Kiss the Bride.

Among the many international experiences, Cocktail Martino was born, dedicated to the music of the Italian composer Bruno Martino. Among the numerous singers who collaborate in this production, the German crooner Tom Gaebel stands out, very successful in his homeland, who sings Garota de Ipanema.

The third chapter of the cocktail series dedicated this time to Lucio Battisti with the presence among others of the guitarist Phil Palmer who proposes an updated version of the famous solo in “with the pink ribbon” which he also performed in the original version.
