Roy Paci is the great trumpet leader and composer of the
Aretuska. Sicilian group that
has realized a recent album from the title "Baciamo le mani".
Roy has played in various groups between which the Banda Ionica, the Mau Mau (one word
that in the piedmontese dialect he defines ragged's person, Moroccans and
wanderers,
people of the south of Italy and the World), the Persiana Jones, Teresa De Sio…
His name is present in more than 180 cd!
It can be noticed that many of its groups have the word ' band ': this is
had to the fact, as Roy explains… "Is a word that she appeals to me very
because he means is country band, and Augusta remembers me my origins.
My music has an attitude much dangerous one, much "vulcanica",
therefore its bugle is the term more appropriate".His trumpet seems to know of places very farther from
its earth. It succeeds to push themselves towards hybrid sonority, to dip themselves with
nature in the most various humors between they.
Roy loves to be confronted with all that it is
various; he seems for
he an artistic requirement not as well as how much physiological one. And the passion
for the comparison it has carried its road to intercross that one of MANU CHAO.
From here a friendship is been born and then the collaboration on Proxima estacion
esperanza.
"Manu I have known it approximately three years ago", tells. "our encounter has happened
to Barcelona, house of common friends. We were seeing of the old films ones
when it has taken the guitar. I had with me the bugle, I have begun
to play making a sonority of those images and the spark has been ignited"-
The friendship with Manu then is continued to the large one.
In fact Roy is currently active part of the plan Radio Bemba Sound System.
