My interests in jazz are:

I wrote fifteen books on jazz-related topics.
I'm a music critic, a writer, a radio host and a History of Jazz teacher.

More about what I do:

I'm promoter and art director of the European Jazz Contest: ‘Premio Perugia Alberto Alberti per il Jazz’. which takes place every year in Umbria.
"Perugia Award Alberto Alberti for Jazz"

I support the JJA because

Because I personally believe that international relations are very important in the world of jazz. Above all, I would be interested in getting to know other professionals working in the field of jazz and being able to compare myself with them.
