Jazz Society by Franco Chiari

Known as an all-around maestro of keyboard instruments, between the ‘60s and ‘70s Franco Chiari excelled at the piano, accordion, and synthesizer, as well as percussion instruments like the vibraphone and marimba, both in jazz and symphonic settings.
With Jazz Society, Four Flies brings back to life fourteen previously unreleased tracks from the vibraphonist, recorded in the late ‘60s with a stellar quartet featuring Peppe Carta on double bass, Roberto Zappulla on drums, Roberto Pregadio on piano, and Franco Chiari himself on vibraphone.

This eclectic collection blends jazz with easy listening, offering a variety of influences: from the playful swing of "Playground," to the melodic beauty of "Minstrel Jazz," enriched with chamber music elements. Standout tracks include the enchanting and ethereal "Fellini Jazz," which evokes a cinematic atmosphere typical of Fellini's films, and the elegant "Jazz Romance," a gentle caress with a sweet rhythm.

Welcome to the Four Flies Vaults, a digital collection of rare Italian music specially recorded for film, radio and television, most of which is available for sync licensing. Here you can discover hidden gems from the golden age of Italian film and library music. All albums have been remastered from the original analog recordings.
