Fabio Giachino is among the most interesting and awarded pianists on the contemporary international jazz scene. With a background ranging from academic degrees in Organ and Composition to Jazz, Giachino has built a unique artistic identity, moving seamlessly between acoustic piano and the new frontiers of live electronics.

A Dialogue between Tradition and Avant-garde

The partnership between Fabio Giachino and Andrea Ravizza manifests through a multiplicity of languages. Giachino's crystalline technique and harmonic sensitivity have made him the ideal partner for complex projects such as Nove Giorni and the video-piece Above and Below, where his piano acts as a bridge between the rhythm section and the soloistic evolutions of Claudio Chiara's sax. In these productions, Giachino perfectly embodies the idea of the "independent actor" central to Ravizza's poetics: a musician who does not limit himself to accompaniment but actively interacts with the orchestral structure.

Versatility and Large Ensembles

Giachino's versatility emerges strongly in the major productions curated by Ravizza, such as the symphonic tribute 110 Rascel, the Cine e Jazz event, or collaborations with the Italian & Swiss Ensemble. His ability to shift from the rigor required by big band and orchestral arrangements (as in Groovin’ High) to the expressive freedom of a jazz trio (alongside soloists of the caliber of Flavio Boltro) confirms his status as a total performer, capable of enhancing every nuance of Ravizza's writing.

Interactive Sonic Ecosystems

Whether supporting vocals in crossover projects or leading the rhythmic narrative in tracks like Smooth, Fabio Giachino brings a fundamental timbral light. His artistic research, which sees him performing in festivals from New York to Tokyo, aligns with Ravizza's vision of a "sonic ecosystem" where the performer is called to refract the score through their own sensitivity, transforming every performance into a unique and unrepeatable event.
