Rosario (Roy) Paci (born September 16, 1969 in Augusta) is an Italian trumpeter, singer, composer and arranger. ==Music and career== Born in Sicily, Paci started playing the piano as a young child and picked up the trumpet at age 10.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://wcities.com/modern-jazz/artist-roy-paci-2295.html )〕 By 13, he was playing with traditional Sicilian jazz and performing in some of Italy's most famous clubs. Paci moved to South America in 1990 where he traveled to play cumbia and popular music in Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil. Further trips to the Canary Islands and Senegal helped him to train and develop his musical influences. These travels set Paci on the path that would lead him into a series of collaborations and tours involving music projects, film, television and political causes, including relief efforts in Africa and Amnesty International's campaign against violence on women.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bacana.de/artist/105.htm )〕 Returning to Italy, Paci entered the alternative rock scene to play with several bands, including Persian Jones, Qbeta, Mau Mau, Banda Ionica, and ZU. Paci's tastes reflected his broad influences and these bands played musical styles ranging from ska and punk to free jazz and Italian funeral marches.〔 In 1999 Roy Paci met French/Spanish(Basque) musician Manu Chao with whom he recorded the critically acclaimed album ''Próxima Estación: Esperanza''. Paci continued to record with Chao and toured extensively with his group Radio Bemba Sound System. In 2001 Paci began a long standing collaboration with Dutch post-punk band The Ex, touring and recording with their Ex Orkest, a 20-piece band made up of various European improvisors revolving around The Ex's scratchy anarcho-punk anthems. Along with Wolter Wierbos (trombone), Mats Gustafsson and Ken Vandermark (saxophones), Paci has continued to tour with The Ex as a member of Brass Unbound and contributed trumpet tracks for the band's album ''Catch My Shoe''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.soundandmusic.org/projects/ex-brass-unbound )〕 In 2002 Paci formed his own band Aretuska and founded the record label Etnagigante in 2003 to produce their second album ''Tuttapposto'', which explored calypso, rocksteady and swing rhythms alongside new arrangements of classic Sicilian folk music. Collaborations continued with Tony Scott, Mike Patton, Gogol Bordello, Shantel and Zap Mama. In 2006 Paci joined forces with Grammy Award-winning klezmer musician Frank London and Balkan brass band leader Boban Markovic for an album combining Paci's Sicilian tradition with Jewish melodies and Balkan sounds called Trumpet Triumph. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roy Paci」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
