Roberto Ottaviano

Roberto Ottaviano is an Italian jazz saxophonist and composer celebrated for his adventurous spirit in avant-garde and free jazz. Known primarily for his mastery of the soprano sax, he’s been a key figure in Europe’s improvisational music scene since the 1980s, blending lyrical phrasing with bold experimentation. His recent works, like *Forgotten Matches: The Worlds of Steve Lacy* and *Astrolabio mistico*, showcase his knack for reimagining jazz traditions while paying homage to legends like Steve Lacy. Albums such as *Resonance & Rhapsodies* and *Eternal Love* highlight his collaborative energy, often teaming up with international musicians to fuse angular harmonies with raw, emotive spontaneity. Whether channeling bebop roots or diving into abstract soundscapes, Ottaviano’s music feels like a conversation between history and the unknown.
