Gegè Telesforo - Impossible Tour Live (2022)

An unforgettable tour that in a difficult year for music, 2021, brought great energy to the stages of half of Italy, leaving a long trail of acclaim and enthusiasm. The Impossible Tour by GeGè Telesforo returns to be talked about, this time becoming a real live album that represents an important stage in the career of the charismatic and eclectic vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and producer (Jazzit Award for 10 consecutive years), among the most loved Italian radio and television personalities thanks to brilliant programs such as “Doc”, “Soundcheck” on Radio24, “Variazioni su Tema” on Rai5 to name a few.

Released on Tuesday 12 January on all digital platforms, Impossible Tour Live is the musical story of the many concerts faced in the summer of 2021, a long way together with a formidable band, formed by bassist Dario Deidda, the best and one of the most popular bass players in the world; by the special guest Max Ionata, one of our most requested Italian saxophonists internationally; the well-known pianist Domenico Sanna, one of the most refined talents on the Italian scene; the excellent double bass player Luca Bulgarelli who also took care of the mix and mastering of the album; Michele Santoleri, a very young drummer with a bright future, has been a full member of the Telesforo band a few years ago.

Among the many records in the studio, Impossible Tour Live is the second that GeGé realizes entirely live: it comes after 25 years away from Pure Funk Live, which remains a fixed point in his artistic career.
GeGé Telesforo: “In March 2021 we thought it was still impossible to go back to making live music.
Instead we succeeded: with some of my best friends and esteemed musicians we completed a tour of 30 concerts with the aim of cheering up everyone and us first. Now that this live album has also been released, we are ready - if we have the chance - to face the Impossible Tour 2022 next summer. "

The album is divided into two sets, recorded in Rome on the occasion of the 2 concerts at the "Dal Tramonto all'Appia - Around Jazz" review at the Appia Antica Archaeological Park and at the Moncalieri Jazz Festival.
