I’ve just experienced an extraordinary moment in my career. I’m quite overwhelmed and overjoyed with the standing ovation I received after the premiere screening of a film of my life as a focus at the prestigious 76th Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland.

As written in the program book: ALL THAT JAZZ (Giona A Nazzaro, Artistic Director) “Do you like Jazz? Then don’t miss today’s magnificent portrait of Joe Lovano, supreme master of the Tenor Saxophone, to whom Franco Maresco has dedicated a moving portrait, ‘LOVANO SUPREME’. An artist that has known and worked alongside some of the greatest of all time takes a journey to discover his Sicilian roots.”
