Chris Jarrett - Luca Ciarla


Internationally acclaimed composer and pianist Chris Jarrett meets with worldwide busy improviser and magician of the violin Luca Ciarla for a unique duo along the borders of contemporary music and jazz.

 

One of the most creative and surprising violinists nowadays, "Luca Ciarla has wooed the classical, jazz and folk crowds with his originality".

A native of Termoli, in the Italian region of Molise, Luca began playing violin and piano at the age of eight. He received the "Diploma di Violino" in 1993 and then studied at the Fiesole School of Music and the European Union Music School of Saluzzo. In 1996 Luca moved to the United States where he completed a PhD in Musical Arts at the University of Arizona. 

 

Together, Luca Ciarla and Chris Jarrett bring a wealth of musical knowledge and talent from across the spectrum of jazz, classical, opera, chamber, folk and contemporary, and will present original compositions in Elisabeth Murdoch Hall.
