Tribute to Paolo Piangiarelli, founder of the Massimo Urbani Prize
On January 1st this year Paolo Piangiarelli, creator and founder of the award, tireless record producer, organizer and promoter of jazz and young musicians, left us.
We continue on the road traced by Paolo.
His intuition to discover, get to know and enhance young jazz talents in the name of Massimo Urbani, recognized as the most talented jazz player ever, was a winning one and represented the engine that allowed the Urbani Prize to continue its journey for 26 years.
Paolo leaves us a great and important legacy, the strength of the Urbani Prize was to never change direction but to always strive for the enhancement of young jazz players and the recognition of talent.
Long live jazz, long live the Massimo Urbani Award!
