Federica Colangelo Interview – Italian Jazz Piano & Forward (Acquaphonica Trio)

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz Interview Series. On this episode, we talk with Italian jazz pianist Federica Colangelo. We caught up with her from Rome to discuss her latest work with her trio Acquaphonica, including their fourth album Forward. Her music is defined by continuous exploration—blending jazz with 20th-century European and American classical influences, along with the intricate rhythmic traditions of South Indian Carnatic music. The result is a truly unique and global compositional voice. We also talk about her recent tour in India and how those experiences continue to shape her evolving sound. This is a deep dive into creativity, culture, and modern jazz expression.
