The ensemble founded by the music director of the SMUM School of Modern Music, Giorgio Meuwly, will perform on Sunday, July 14, in the beautiful setting of Ciani Park in Lugano to celebrate the 30th year of activity of the School of Modern Music. SMUM is present in Ticino with three locations, Lugano, Losone and Acquarossa, and offers not only a free study course but also a pre-college course in jazz and modern music, unique in Ticino.

The quintet, which has evolved over the years, often changing size and formation, is now made up of teachers still working at the School of Modern Music in Lugano and will offer original compositions by guitarist Giorgio Meuwly and arrangements of famous "standards" of the jazz tradition.
SMUM 5tet will give life to a modern style, in osmosis between jazz and funk, while always paying due attention to the origins and the great tradition of African-American jazz.

Training:

George Meuwly, guitar

Gabriele Comeglio, alto sax

Matteo Ballabio, piano
