LATIN JAZZ @ MONDO Event with THE EMILIO SOLLA CHAMBER TRIO in Concert
The unique and popular Latin jazz music concert series with TEATRO Si comes to a new venue when the monthly LATIN JAZZ @ MONDO event brings a special concert on Saturday, February 25, 2017 at 8:00pm to the Theater at MONDO, located at 426 Springfield Avenue in quaint downtown Summit, NJ. On the last Saturday of each month TEATRO Si presents for you a concert experience at this unique performance venue where you are surrounded by inspiring fine art as you enjoy the best of Latin jazz artists from NYC and beyond. This month spend the evening with Grammy nominated pianist Emilio Solla and His Chamber Trio, including bandoneon artist Julien Labro and John Ellis on soprano & tenor sax as they bring their special sounds to this cozy space as part of the CD release tour of their latest TRIBUTANGO recording.

Grammy Nominated Argentina born and NY based pianist & composer Emilio Solla got his degree in Classical Piano at the National Conservatory of Music in Buenos Aires and his MA in Jazz Composition at Queens College in New York. He continued to study composition, arranging, counterpoint, improvisation and conducting in Buenos Aires, Barcelona and New York.

His first band, Apertura, was praised by Astor Piazzolla himself as one of the most interesting new sounds in the Buenos Aires scene in 1986. Nowadays, with seven CDs as band leader (Fresh Sound Records) and more than forty as arranger/producer, he is considered by peers and critics to be one of the most outstanding and personal voices in this musical stream, a fusion of modern Argentine tango and folk with jazz and other contemporary music styles (generally referred to as Tango-Jazz). He has performed all around Europe, Japan, the US and Latin America to raving reviews in many of the most important Jazz houses and Festivals (Bim Huis, Lincoln Center, Marciac, Blue Note, Fasching).

Solla moved to Barcelona in 1996, and to New York in 2006, always in search of personal and artistic growth. Since in New York, he has composed for, arranged for and performed with Paquito DRivera, Arturo OFarrill, Edmar CastaƱeda, Pablo Aslan, Cristina Pato and many others, besides performing with his quintet Bien Sur! in town at the Jazz Standard, Dizzys and Smalls, featuring  saxophonist Chris Cheek. Former members of this band include Donny Mc Caslin and Jeff Ballard. This quintet has released its first CD, Bien Sur! (Fresh Sound, 2010), with special guest Billy Hart, included in the Best of 2010 list by Downbeat Magazine.

He continues to tour Europe with Emilio Solla & Afines, his Barcelonas based quintet, while working as a free-lance arranger and pianist in different projects in NY. Since November 2010, he is leading a nine piece orchestra, La Inestable de Brooklyn, featuring some of the strongest jazz players in NYC (John Ellis, Ryan Keberle) whose first CD, Second Half (2014) has just been Nominated for a 2015 Grammy Award as Best Latin Jazz Album. In November 2014 Sollas first symphonic work had its World Premiere at the Palau de la Musica, during the Barcelona Jazz Festival, with upcoming concerts at the Chicago Symphony Hall and Rutgers University in 2015. 2016 brought him back to Buenos Aires for the premiere of the orchestral version of his Suite Piazzollana as well as the current ongoing release tour of the latest TribuTango CD recording by the group.

He has a long background as educator as well, having taught regularly in different conservatories in Argentina and Spain. He is currently a Faculty Member at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music and has given clinics in Jazz Composition at Emory University, Bates College, Gotemburg Music School (Sweden), Jazz & Pop Conservatory (Helsinki, Finland).
