Oh yes! BETSABEA got the 1st prize (A cat) at the international jazz competition for jazz orchestra ‘Scrivere in Jazz’ hosted by Orchestra Jazz della Sardegna !
This is a double win as it was a long time since my music wasn’t played in Italy, so this makes it even more special.
But I want to congratulate all the finalists, all terrific composers, and human beings!
A special ‘hug’ goes to my fellow composer and old friend Tobias Hoffmann and to my new compositional friend Gerardo Pepe for winning in categories B and C! And to Laura Giulia Veltri that got a Special Mention for her nice work.

And last but not least…thanks to the Jury members that choose Betsabea:

Marco Tiso, Corrado Guarino, Michele Corcella, Gianluigi Trovesi

“C’è attesa, fiducia, pazienza in “Aspetta”, il brano con cui il leccese Gabriele di Franco si è aggiudicato il titolo di secondo miglior com- positore al Jazz Comp Graz 2017. Unico finali- sta italiano tra 52 candidature dal mondo. C’è molto della sua vita nelle note scritte su quel pentagramma. Ci sono i suoi sogni rincorsi lontano da casa, in quella Bruxelles che lo ha accolto tra i suoi musicisti, c’è la passione che lo fa scommettere su quell’impresa chiamata musica, che non ha orario, tempo, regole, solo rigore, impegno, volontà. Gabriele è giovane e ha una bella carriera davanti. All’ indomani della sua vittoria lo abbiamo intervistato.”

“Waiting, trust, patience. You’ll find it all in “Aspetta” (Wait), the piece for which Gabriele di Franco from Lecce was awarded the price for second best composer at Jazz Comp Graz 2017. He was the only Italian finalist among 52 candidates from all over the world. A lot of his life can be found in the notes written on that pentagram. His dreams which has brought him far from home, to the city of Brussels which has welcomed him among its musicians, the passion who brought him to bet on music as his livelihood, a life with no schedules, no set hours or rules, just rigor, commitment, will. Gabriele is young and has his career in front of him, we interviewed him the day after his victory.”
