JAZZ IMPROVISATION

In 1996 Ivo Papadopoulos and Alessandra Vinci, together with Luigi Diana, Emiliano Venditti, and Alberto Esposito, founded the musical group "Dharma". The quintet created original music due to the encounter of musicians with different musical experience: jazz, rock, classical, blues). Their live concerts were enriched with paintings, choreographies and poetical interventions, so that for several years many artists cooperated with the group (collaborations). In 1999 the Dharma group released and Alessandra Vinci and Ivo Papadopoulos formed the Dharma duet, often joined by the contemporary dancer Valeria Andreozzi that with her choreography adds a plus-value to the live concerts. Also with this group their performances are enriched with photograph exhibitions, paintings, action painting and collaborations with other musicians. The Dharma Duet proceeds its musical research arranging for duo some compositions of the quintet (such as Samskara and Sonata in re minore, included in the CD "Clazz"). The duet creates a new refined musical language that combines the Greek soul with the jazz training of the saxophonist with the marvellous sensitiveness and technique of the pianist.
