Paolo Fresu live in Roma Capitale

Experience Paolo Fresu live on July 27th

Paolo Fresu will perform a concert at Airport Alfredo Barbieri Guidonia, located in the metropolitan city of Rome, Italy, on July 27, 2026. Fresu is a highly regarded Italian jazz trumpeter and composer known for his lyrical and emotionally resonant style. His music frequently blends traditional jazz idioms with influences from Mediterranean folk music, improvisation, and contemporary classical elements. He’s collaborated extensively with musicians across diverse genres, establishing a distinctive sound characterized by melodic sensitivity and textural exploration.

Airport Alfredo Barbieri Guidonia has a significant history rooted in Italy’s aviation development. Originally established in 1939, it served as one of Italy’s first modern airfields and played a role during World War II. Post-war, it transitioned into a training facility for the Italian Air Force and remains actively used for military aviation purposes today. While primarily a military airport, it occasionally hosts civilian aviation activities and events. The airfield's extensive open spaces present an unconventional venue for musical performances, offering a unique atmosphere distinct from traditional concert halls. The choice of this location reflects an intention to combine cultural experiences with the historical context of the airport itself.
