Jazz Festival: Luca Ciarla Solorkestra

An exclusive concert for Wellington Jazz Festival at The Undercurrent.

Luca Ciarla redraws the borders of jazz violin with a loop pedal, his voice and a wise use of electronics. He performs the entire score of his band solo, playing the violin also like a guitar, a cello or a percussion instrument.

In this imaginative musical landscape Luca sings, whistles, plays other instruments or adds new improvisations; music is continuously evolving into a dazzling solOrkestra.

The program Jazz Violin 2.0 features original compositions and unusual arrangements of jazz standards.

“…his post-Coltrane approach to ‘My Favorite Things’ was a clever way to twit a jazz classic…” The San Francisco Examiner (Usa)

Featuring LUCA CIARLA on violin, vocals, live loops and electronics
