Tino Aureli is a music composer and Italian by origin. He is also a composer/producer for film & TV. Tino interest in Jazz begins in the club dives of Rome in the 60's where straightahead jazz was the norm. The blues tinged rifts of his guitar, demonstrates flair and a fluid inventiveness from beginning to end. In the composition, he takes away the players attitude, and writes music that has its own logic and reason for being. Tino music manages to combine immediacy with certain off the wall unpredictability. Not so much complicated, just an unexpected choice of chord progressions. The clever arrangements tips, in his music, include tempo fluctuations, unusual chord progressions and a touch of unexpected transpositions. Tino's music has its roots in more then one period and it is difficult to pigeonhole, ' FREE JAZZ' is a good word for it.
