Simone Zanchini - July 25

This was the last of the Cala Rajada summer concerts. Every year they have a series of different concerts performed in the beautiful gardens of Torre Cega overlooking the bay and the pretty harbour of Cala Rajada.
Not knowing quite what to expect apart from quality performers it is very difficult to prepare yourself for a night of accordion listening. It was an unusual concert from this Italian trio but one that turned out to be very enjoyable, with them playing some great jazz classics under the stars - three excellent musicians. Simone on the accordion was just fantastic, getting an incredible array of music from what looks like a very cumbersome instrument. There was a moment somewhere in the middle where they did their jazz thing, but I think they can be forgiven for that as overall it was a well put together performance
On a personal note I do think is very difficult to do a solo on double bass, maybe it's just me?
