D. Tiberi , guitarist • Norberto
I checked out Lovely
Tunes. I really like your playing. I hear some
if my favorite pianists in your playing yet its definitely
your own sound.... Your
left hand is beautiful--not busy at all ala Bill
Evans. Also you have just the right amount of Monk
in your playing which is a compliment. Bill Evans + Monk is
what I hear in your music + Norberto. I love it!
-November 2010 Gerlando Gatto:
"Norberto Tamburrino e' un eccellente pianista di cui ho spesso parlato
su questo sito.." da OnLine-jazz.net
-March 2010
"I am faithful listener of your music and I'd like to share with my radio

is a valuable contribution to my human and cultural growth.
Thank you very much." Gustavo Adolfo
Bustamante at Ritmos en Jazz-Colombia

You should know that I receive a lot of music to listen too
and I have to say that I really enjoyed your piano playing,
tune selection, band personnel and arrangements. This is
a first class production all the way." Jim Eigo at Jazz Promo Services-

About Jazz: "A musician
with a preference for the softer side
of jazz, pianist Norberto Tamburrino
offers a break from the boisterous horns
and saxophones, and the pounding sounds
of the percussive instruments, with
a masterful solo piano performance
of Lovely
Tunes that is truly a
pleasure to hear often."
Lovely
Tunes album reviewed by Gerlando
Gatto (on line jazz.net):".una musica che
si sviluppa in modo omogeneo, sicuro passando senza alcuna
apparente difficoltà dallo
swing al jazz anni cinquanta fino a giungere ai giorni
d’oggi evidenziando quella enciclopedia
cultura pianistica che, unitamente alle caratteristiche
prima descritte, fanno di Tamburrino un interprete di
primo piano del jazz made in Italy.."

all review by Jay Deshpande
Notes It's a 12 tunes compilation, containing 10 compositions
I did and Pannonica by Thelonious
Monk. The rhythm section is fine : by Joseph
Lepore on bass and Bruce
Coxon drums playing on first 6 tunes . ..J.
D. Allen recorded his sax on 2 tracks with us in New York
on last November. Remaining 6 tracks are in solo piano,
I recorded it in Italy. There's a strange sound tune I called
"Stars in Box" in which I overdubbed my piano
on a track I did with a keyboard with some koto, organ, violins
and el. piano
