PRESS REVIEWS 2017
Bordighera - on Sunday, 8 January Andrea Bacchetti will be in Bordighera, a musician who is
so different from everyone else, to be considered widespread even an "abnormal pianist". Andrea
Bacchetti has always gone against the grain ... He is able to conciliate high-level and popular music with
the same mathematical attention, and a recognisable attitude that does not hesitate on sentimentalism as much
as on absolute respect for the piece to be interpreted. ... Although he is an extraordinary Bach interpreter
(there is no a pianist who did not try to emulate his interpretations), he has in his usual repertoire
Schumann, Beethoven, Chopin, Berio, Brahms, Skrjabin, Prokofieff, Rachmaninoff, Gershwin and Debussy; but he
also played impressive jazz, chamber music concerts, and with Antonella Ruggiero ... Therefore, a purist who
also looks for contaminations to spread music, his great love. ...

der uns anlässlich seines Konzertes bei der Schumanniade Moutfort davon überzeugte, dass tatsächlich der erste wirkliche
Jazz-Komponist Johann Sebastian Bach war. Mit einem wunderbar klaren, dynamischen und regelrecht "swingenden" Spiel
zeigte uns Bacchetti, dass man Bachs Musik nicht unbedingt analytisch, akademisch oder trocken interpretieren muss. ... Sicher,
Andrea Bacchettis Interpretation muss nicht jedem gefallen, aber was der Pianist an spielerischem und gestalterischem Können
aufbietet, das ist schon atemberaubend. ... Gerade die Zusammenstellung, die der italienische Meisterpianist ausgewählt hatte
und die er ohne Unterbrechung während rund 60 Minuten spielte, ließ die vielen Facetten von Bachs Komponierkunst erkennen und
ergab ein erstaunlich kohärentes Gesamtbild, so - und da wären wir wieder beim Jazz - wie wir es von den Solokonzerten eines
Keith Jarrett her kennen. ...

A concert by Uto Ughi and Andrea Bacchetti starts really before the music begins. ... Uto Ughi charismatically personifies an
orthodox model of performer which Andrea Bacchetti disobeyed many times in his brilliant and precocious career, sometimes in
a clamorous way. We are not talking only of his candid availability to be a guest in the trash TV shows by Piero Chiambretti,
but also of his openness without prejudices to artists with a different range of musical genres, accompanying on keyboard,
for example, Antonella Ruggiero's songs with the same expressive refinement he would perform in a Sonata by Scarlatti or in a
concert by Bach ...

Sebastian Bach, who you have not to underestimate, never) but he permitted himself a few exceptions to the rules, for example
being a regular guest of the trash TV shows by Piero Chiambretti. However, these two musicians get perfectly along with each
other, so they bounded in a duo which is achieving a success after the other ...

La Stampa Torino 7 - December 15th, 2017 (Leonardo Osella)
... «Bacchetti is a talented young man and he also recorded beautiful discs. I think that contact with different
musicians enhances. You have not to bound yourself to a single collaboration for all your life or it will limit you. In my
career, I played with many pianists and each of them gave me new ideas. I'm for a not-indiscriminate openness to pop
music. I know I don't have it in my DNA, but I let the choice to the player»
Ughi: «No more parodies between classical and pop music, they look just caricatures»
