One of the world's leading jazz piano players on the scene today, specialized in the styles from Harlem Stride Piano to Bebop to Contemporary Jazz.

​

Elegant and Swinging Piano Jazz

Based in New York City, Rossano is a classically trained Italian pianist who transitioned to Jazz at very young age. He is a master of both styles and his classical skills frequently come to the fore along with Harlem Stride Piano. He plays with a relaxed swing, paying respect to the original melodies while also adding something of his own to each performance.

Stylistically, Rossano is a follower of Ralph Sutton, Hank Jones, Tommy Flanagan, Dave McKenna and Barry Harris, but is also influenced by the masters like Fats Waller, Teddy Wilson, Art Tatum, Errol Garner, George Shearing, Count Basie, Earl Hines, Ellis Larkins and Bill Evans.
