Paolo Fresu plays David Bowie. And that alone would be enough to ‘make headlines’. He does it in the company of a stellar cast with Petra Magoni, Filippo Vignato (or Gianluca Petrella), Francesco Diodati, Francesco Ponticelli, Christian Meyer: the news is ‘headline news’.

‘As soon as this project was proposed to me,’ says Fresu, ‘I felt honoured and excited. I decided to put together a unique, specially created band with musicians from different backgrounds. Approaching the music of David Bowie is a great emotion and also an extraordinary opportunity for all of us’. The group got their hands on around 30 pieces, such as Life on Mars, This Is Not America, Warszawa. Everyone has made their own contribution to the arrangements, adding variety and dynamism to the project. Petra Magoni, the vocalist, enjoys the most freedom, but the concert still relies on teamwork. Returning to Fresu’s words: ‘Bowie is an immortal author who has always been close to jazz. We will try to have the utmost respect for his art but also to be proactive, casting a fresh eye on these songs’.
