Giuseppe Zanca

I've been studying electric bass and trumpet from a young age. I graduated from conservatory in trumpet and jazz music and have since been dedicated myself to making musical arrangements. While concluding my studies, I started my professional career with various groups. I participated in courses at Umbria Jazz, Siena Jazz, Vienna, New York, etc. . In the 80's I made recordings of pop music for Pierangelo Bertoli, Loredana Berte, Aida Cooper, Fred Bongusto, Rocky Roberts, Umberto Bindi, Vladi Tosetto, Manuela Villa, Raoul Casadei, Tanita Tikaram, and others. In 1990 I moved to the United States for studies and professional experience. Since 1992, I've owned and operated a professional recording studio in Italy, working with various editors, such as Ariston, Fabbri, Universal, Hobby & Work, Caligula, RCA, CGD, and RTI Mediaset. Composer of over 100 songs for television themes, documentaries, circus & show music, films, and background music for advertising (RTI Mediaset and RAI trade) up until 2014. In 2002 and 2003 I conducted the festival "Mara & Meo" in Switzerland for the national network IST. In 2007 I produced a group "Khorakhanè" with whom I also directed in the 57th Annual Sanremo Festival of Song. Since 2016, I've played as the leader in my live quartet as a trumpeter, for which I arranged covers and my own tracks. From 2015 to 2018 I've toured as the bass player and arranger for the Casadei Orchestra. Since 2018 I've been focussing on freelance as a music producer and recently started expanding my brand reach via Spotify, Fiver and other platforms.
