The Bottesini Project
Paul Riola:
Saxophonist Paul Riola hails originally from Denver Colorado, but spent 12 years living and playing in Portland Oregon. It was in Portland that Paul had the opportunity to work with the likes of Rob Blakeslee, Michael Vlaktovich, Steve Mackay , Moe Staiano and the Moe!kestra! and Chad Hensels Inquisition Ensemble.
Paul currently is involved in various creative projects and collaborations in the region; including, a commissioned film score currently on exhibition at The Laboratory of Art and Ideas at Belmar, and co-curator for music for The Clyfford Still Museum.
Bottesini
The guiding principle of this ensemble is to create a collective of Denver and International musicians dedicated to free improvisation. Every Bottesini performance will be an entirely unique musical experience which will draw upon a multitude of musical genres and landscapes. In each coming performance various instrumentation and personnel changes will become the norm. You can expect to see some of the most talented and proficient musicians from around the world in all future Bottesini performances.
Each performance of Bottesini will focus strongly on a programmatic approach to free improvisation. The intent of this approach is to create musical landscapes with inherent form and structure; thus, lending the impression of composed rehearsed music.
Past Performances and recording sessions have included some of the finest improvisers from around the country including:
