@criticaljazz Review January 2012 | Avant garde yet remarkably accessible, Claudio Scolari is charting a new musical direction for the modern jazz movement. Below you will find two videos from You Tube from Colors of Red Island, a musical kaleidoscope of sound and imagery, controlled sonic fury and a mysterious dynamic tension making this one of the most diverse listening experiences to date.

Biography

Dummer, percussionist, composer Claudio Scolari was born in Reggio Emilia (Italy) in 1962. Took a diploma at the College of music A.Boito in Parma (in Italy). His artistic career developed in two different areas: the Classical and Contemporary music one and the Avant-garde Jazz music one in collaboration with some of the most prestigious symphonic orchestras in Italy e.g. The Scala Philharmonic Orchestra of Milano, the RAI National Symphonic Orchestra of Torino going on tour in Spain, Switzerland, France and Germany from 1989 to 2010 and collaborating with the following Orchestra Directors: Giuseppe Sinopoli, Luciano Berio, Fruhbech de Burgos, Whun Chung, Eliahu Imbal, Jeffrey Tate, Yutaka Sado, Georges Pretre, Daniel Oren, Aleksandr Lazarev, Dmitrij Kitaenko, Yuri Ahronovitch, Riccardo Chally, Gary Bertini ecc.

In Jazz and Avant-garde music Claudio Scolari has always shown interest towards the timbre research of his instruments going also through the composition with special attention to the contemporary and jazz writing techniques. In his way of organizing the sound elements the intent of adventuring in antique sonorities can be read, there the rhythm mixes to noise and to instrumental timbers with the contemporary support of keyboards and synthesizers.
