Cettina Donato Trio

Cettina Donato is an internationally acclaimed classical and jazz pianist, composer, arranger and conduc-tor. Her highly original work often blurs the lines between genres: from jazz to classical, and from sympho-nic music to theatrical music. In 2011, while based in Boston (MA, USA), Donato formed the Cettina Do-nato Orchestra, a full size jazz big band with a string quartet featuring musicians from all over the world.
Across the ocean, in Italy, Donato is the only woman that conducts classical symphony orchestras per-forming a jazz repertoire while also contributing her own arrangements as well.
Cettina Donato conducted the Bari Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra (Bari, Puglia), the Vittorio Emanuele Symphony Orchestra (Messina, Sicily), the Lucca Jazz Orchestra (Lucca, Tuscany), the Molfetta Youth Symphony Orchestra (Bari, Puglia), the New Talents Jazz Orchestra (Rome).
