Antonella Mazza

Italian bass and doublebass player, from jazz to rock.

Born in June, a Gemini, I studied upright bass at G. Verdi Conservatory with teacher Ezio Pederzani, and at the Novara Conservatory with Davide Botto. I received a master degree in Ethnomusicology from D.A.M.S. and also as Sound Designer. I had clinics on electric bass and upright too with Dave Clark and Bruce Geerz from Berklee College of Boston , with John Patitucci, Claude Tchamitchan, Paolo Costa, E.Lo Greco.
