The new edition of the Festival directed by Maestro Franco Baggiani and created by the Chianti Rufina Consortium, the Municipalities of Pontassieve, Pelago, Rufina and Dicomano begins on 30 June. Between tastings and live jazz at sunset, 14 evenings in some of the most beautiful farms of the Consortium.
Jazz in Fattoria is back, for a fourth edition which from June to September will bring live jazz to the villas and farms of the Chianti Rufina Consortium.
Fourteen concerts at sunset, accompanied by tastings of wines and local products, in the villas and farms of the Chianti Rufina Consortium, with the artistic direction of Maestro Franco Baggiani – jazz musician and director of the Municipal Music School of Dicomano, Londa, Pelago, Pontassieve, Rufina – that of the festival he is also the creator.
The success of the event is also demonstrated by the large number of sponsors who have decided to support it: BCC Pontassieve, Dal Lago TTC, Tecnovite Toscana Sas, Chelli Energy Solutions, Salumificio Gerini SpA and Grafica Znoymo srl as technical sponsor.
The Castles of Nipozzano and Trebbio, Tenuta Bossi, the Lavacchio, Grignano, Selvapiana, Il Capitano and Il Lago farms, the Frascole and Borgo Macereto companies and the Travignoli villas, the Palagio di Colognole and the Villa Poggio Reale di Rufina, where the review will close on 23 September, with a special evening: these are the locations of the concerts of the fourth edition.
“Our festival has reached its fourth edition, it has grown thanks to the exclusivity of the chosen stages and the quality and variety of the musical offer, which ranges from jazz standards to more experimental improvisations. A mix capable of capturing audiences with different tastes, united by the desire for quality free time, in the name of beauty – says the artistic director Franco Baggiani – and sustainability, given that the particularity of Jazz in the Farm is to exploit only the light of twilight, creating a truly suggestive atmosphere.”
“For the Chianti Rufina Consortium – says the President of the Chianti Rufina Consortium, Federico Giuntini – Jazz in Fattoria was a good bet and this fourth edition tells us that we can consider it won: the presences are numerous every year, as are the farms who adhere. Jazz in Fattoria is a Festival that celebrates music and the food and wine and landscape excellences of the area, which we as a Consortium are committed to promoting. We can only be proud of it.”
Great satisfaction also from the mayors of the organizing Municipalities: Pontassieve, Pelago, Rufina and Dicomano, as the mayors Monica Marini, Nicola Povoleri, Vito Maida and Stefano Passiatore say: “Jazz in Fattoria is a unique review, which involves all the senses and knows how to tell the beauty of our territory. Being at the fourth edition and seeing it grow more every year, in terms of number of companies and audience, is a great achievement, for us who have believed in it a lot since the beginning. In fact, the success of the initiative is linked not only to its artistic value, but also to the ability to work together demonstrated by institutions and companies, capable of cooperating with the aim of promoting a territory that has so much to offer like that of Valdisieve ”.
