Formed together with Bruno Tommaso and with the great trumpeter Enrico Rava, Paolo Fresu, a virtuoso on trumpet and flugelhorn, is not only one of the best and most renowned Italian jazz musicians, but simply one of one of the greats of European jazz, with more than 350 recorded albums, of which more than eighty as a leader.

Awarded as the best European musician in 1996 and winner of the "Django d'Or" as the best European jazz musician, among his innumerable projects and formations, we especially love his trio Mare Nostrum, together with Richard Galliano and Jan Lundgren, and above all his wonderful quintet, who had not met for years and will finally do so at Jazz San Javier, as one of the great jewels of this 25th anniversary.
