ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
“Widely regarded as one of the most respected and sought-after jazz musicians in the music world, Brazilian-born Eumir Deodato has racked up 16 platinum records to his credit as artist, arranger or producer with combined sales of well over 25 million records in the USA alone. His discography, including compilations and all his work as arranger, producer and keyboardist, surpasses 450 albums. And yet, in spite of all of his varied triumphs, honors and distinctions over the years, the multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist will probably forever be associated with one song – his innovative rendition of Richard Strauss’ classical opus Also Sprach Zarathustra, perhaps more commonly known as the theme to 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Line up: Eumir Deodato (keys), Piero Odorici (alto sax and flute), Marco Tamburini (trumpet & flugelhorn), Stefano Paolini (drums), Pier Luigi Mingotti (bass), Gerardo Velez (percussion), Daniele Santimoni (guitar).”
