This will be an evening of straight forward piano jazz in the intimate setting of Caspe Terrace in Waukee, Iowa. Born in 1992, Andrea Domenici permanently moved from Italy to the USA, where he graduated from the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music and was immediately noticed by major jazz artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Dave Douglas and others. His first CD captures the essence of what these musicians heard in Andrea — fresh interpretations of Thelonius Monk compositions, breathtaking renditions of ballads such as “It’s Easy To Remember” and memorable originals such as “Bubba” and “Daniela”. Andrea will be accompanied t the Caspe Terrace performance by fellow Italian Fabrizio Sciacca on bass violin. This will be their first visit to Iowa. The perfect acoustics of this 140-seat modern auditorium are ideal for a performance of this nature. The performance will be followed by a meet-the-artist dessert reception hosted by the Waukee Area Arts Council.
