It is entitled Bergamo Jazz Memories: five stories to tell about the Festival.<\/em><\/strong> the Fondazione Teatro Donizetti project dedicated to Bergamo Jazz. The video series, edited by Bergamo Jazz contributor Roberto Valentino<\/strong>, was recorded on the stage of the Donizetti Theater. Guests, musicians (some of them also as performers), journalists, spectators and operators witnessed highlights from the history of the Orobico festival, from 1969 to the present, from when it was still called the International Jazz Review<\/em>, which the Azienda del Turismo organized for 12 editions, until the 1991 revival under the auspices of the City of Bergamo and Donizetti Theater.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The video series opens with a recollection of the festival’s early years, starting with the very evening of March 21, 1969, when pianist Giorgio Gaslini performed first solo and then at the head of his big band. Recounting it are Guido Conti<\/strong>, a member of the Bergamo Jazz Club and a spectator on that historic evening and all the subsequent ones that have punctuated the festival, and Gianluigi Trovesi<\/strong>: the most international of Bergamo’s jazz musicians in 1969 was in the audience, but since 1970 he would tread the city’s main jazz stage numerous times. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
