In occasione del centenario della nascita di Maxwell Lemuel “Max” Roach (Newland, 10 gennaio 1924 – New York, 16 agosto 2007), protagonista assoluto della storia del jazz e tra i più influenti innovatori della batteria moderna, Antonio Fusco presenta una nuova produzione multimediale.

This project pays tribute to Roach not only as an extraordinary musician and composer but also as a powerful voice against racial discrimination. From the 1960s onwards, Roach transformed his art into a tool for protest and a struggle for the rights of the African American community.

Led by Antonio Fusco on drums, the quartet features double bassist Carlo Bavetta, trumpeter Alberto Mandarini, and pianist Antonio Zambrini (both professors at the Milan Conservatory).
