Andrea’s playing is prolific, as is reflected on his recent album releases....
2021 - ‘To Bud’ This is Andrea’s debut album which is a tribute to the music of the genius pianist, Bud Powell. Bud is the main inspiration for Andrea Rinciari’s playing.

This album also features the great Adam Merrell on the drums and the great Lorenzo Morabito on bass.
