In the following years he mostly ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ played contemporary classical music with the best ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ European ensembles. However, already during those ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ days he ventured into jazz and improvisation. ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Through his work with Richard Galliano, Sergio ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Assad, Stefano Battaglia and others he received ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ good exposure at large festivals throughout the ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ world. He was selected Talent of the Year in Italy ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ in 1996 and presented his Brazilian project ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Pixinguinha at Umbria Jazz in 2001. Italian critic ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Guido Festinese described him as "a lucid, driving, ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ unpredictable clarinet player with a voracious ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ musical curiosity." Mirabassi has several albums ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ under his own name on the Italian Egea label. ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ In 2001 Mirabassi joined Rabih Abou-Khalil's group ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ and soon became its foremost soloist who regularly ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ brings the audience into a boiling state. While ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Rabih's music has an Arabic color, Gabriele's is ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ deeply rooted in the folk music of his native Italy ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ which he presents with great emotional power. ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Accordionist Luciano Biondini, who has also worked ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ with such as Tony Scott and Enrico Rava, and tuba ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ player Michel Godard, the most versatile exponent ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ of his instrument worldwide, have been working with ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Mirabassi for quite a while - formerly as a quartet ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ with additional drums or mandolin. All three of ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ them are currently members in Rabih Abou-Khalil's ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ band. ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ "Latakia Blend" is a charming album packed with ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ thrilling original tunes. Graceful and inventive, ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ it mixes the happiness and melancholia of folk ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ dance music, the artistic perfection of a chamber ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ ensemble and the improvisational drive of a jazz ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ band. Consequently this album's program ranges from ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ that sad Italian folk song "Gorizia" to Brazilian ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ Ch⌠ro composer Pixinguinha's "Segura Ele" to an ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ out-of-tempo rendition of Billy Strayhorn's ballad ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ "Isfahan." And Mirabassi's warm clarinet adds ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ nothing but pure beauty to all of them. ▓▌ ▓████▓▌ ▓▌ ░ ▓████▓▌ ▓▌ ▓ ▐█████▓█ [ A B O U T .
