Hilary interviews Italian jazz pianist Marco Marconi.

Marco's gig at The Pheasantry on London's Kings Road in March was my last gig before lockdown. It was great to be able to chat with him online and to find out more about his background. I hadn't realised that Gerry Mulligan had been a pivotal musician for him, as he was for me..

To find out more about Marco, click here or find him on Facebook to enjoy some of his lockdown streaming sessions.

Don't forget the Quincy Jones quote that sums up why I do this: "Imagine what a harmonious world it would be if every single person, both young and old, shared a little of what he is good at doing."
