“Picco è un improvvisatore puro, è soltanto quello che suona e come lo suona. Un concerto di Picco vale sempre un viaggio anche da lontano.”

“An original beautiful touch of classic and the improvisation of jazz style music starts the evening. As light returns some audience were moving their bodies to the rhythm and some covering their eyelids to wipe away their tears.”

“Picco plays for a mesmerising 45 minutes, unleashing gorgeous piece upon piece — the last time this writer saw such a quiet and still audience was when Nobel Prize winning author J. M. Coetzee had read at Jaipur Literature Festival earlier this year.”

“From subtle and soft tones to powerful fortissimo chords, it was a display of magical virtuosity. You could close your eyes and be carried away by the cascading tides of evocative notes.”

“Cesare Picco dazzled the audience in the capital. The concert attendees witnessed Picco’s remarkable technique of playing live improvisations that elevated the art of experimental piano renditions.”

“The audience is impulsively and emotionally drawn into the compositions by the pianist’s physical intensity, an intensity that sometimes made me close my eyes and be carried away on an evocative tide of notes.”

“La sua natura è innestare, sperimentare ed esplorare nuovi territori attraverso la tastiera, che sia un pianoforte a coda o un clavicordo. Incontro con un artista che ama cambiare rotta.”

“In the dark, Picco discloses music’s profoundness.”

“When music evokes emotions in complete darkness.”
