BIOGRAPHIE Guitar player, composer and concert-artist, Giovanni works in the area of crossing acoustic music, performing as a soloist of contemporary acoustic fingerstyle guitar as well as in different ensembles like the Acoustic Trio (guitar, vibraphone and accordion), and several duos. Giovanni plays original instrumental music in which folk reminescence, jazz harmony and improvisation converge with a touch of mediterranean melody, as for example in the last CD “Folk Frontiera” (2006 Wonderland Rec.), played by the Acoustic Trio and the outstanding clarinet player Gabriele Mirabassi as a guest. “Duos & Trios, guitar dialogues”, (2003,Acoustic Music Rec.), reveals Palombo’s cameristic approach with pieces played as a duo and as a trio: “Giovanni Palombo’s musical microcosm is characterized by an original amlgamation of mediterranean melodic phrases, impressionistic harmonic progressions and jazzy improvvisations. His compositions moves within that especially staked out area with a serene, broad swing, majestic, impelling, playful, always with a surprising twist “ (CD’sinside notes). This CD also contains the composition “Dove avranno nascosto il mare” choose for the movie soundtrack of “L’Orizzonte degli Eventi” directed by Daniele Vicari (Cannes 2005). Giovanni also composed music for the Italian TV documentaries “Geo&Geo” (Rai Trade).
