Gianfranco Foddai - Italian Songwriters Night

I’ll be performing at Zen Arts Group, an intimate house concert series in Northeast Seattle known for its warm atmosphere and attentive listening audience.

For this special evening, I’ll present Piccola Orchestra – Canzoni d’Autore, joined by a five-musician ensemble featuring drums and percussion, violin, bass, saxophone and flute. Together we’ll explore the rich tradition of Italian songwriting, with music by Fabrizio De André, Lucio Dalla, Francesco De Gregori, and other voices that shaped a cultural legacy.

The program moves through different shades of expression, from quiet and reflective moments to fuller and more cinematic textures, always centered on storytelling and emotional connection.

The setting at ZAG invites a close, shared experience between musicians and audience, where every nuance can be felt and every word can land.

Doors open at 7:00pm. Music starts at 7:30pm.
