Excellent pianist and successful composer, Kenny Warner perfectly combines the technique of the instrument with that natural instinct that leads him through improvisation. • Kenny Warner performed on the stage of Taormina Jazz Festival with the fellow musician Avishai Cohen, Isreali trumpet player who began his career in the Young Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Zubin Mehta, and then increasingly devoted himself to his favorite genre, jazz. • The performance of artist Omer Avital, Israeli as well, definitely matched the game of a bass virtuoso among the most brilliant of the New York scene, and compared by New York Times critic Ben Ratliff to historical protagonists of jazz bass like Charles Mingus and William Parker. • To Jonathan Blake and his drums the task of keeping intact the clarity of the beat and the incisiveness of a clear personal swing. • • The Taormina Jazz Festival, which enjoys the art direction by Toti Cannistraro, aims to promote jazz as an art form, celebrating the rich variety of traditional standards and innovations of its more experimental expressions. • • The event is arranged by Nino Scandurra, patron of the initiative and owner of the shoes and clothing boutique in Taormina of the same name, and supported by longtime sponsors such as Roberto Del Carlo, Piero Guidi, Pinko, Alberto Guardiani, Heritage, Hotel Metropole Taormina and Premier Tax Free. • • The event enjoys the indispensable support and patronage of the Assessorato al Turismo e Verde Pubblico of the City of Taormina and has been included among the events rounding out the calendar of Taormina Arte. • • http://www.taorminajazzfestival.it/
