Isio Saba

Italian photographer and jazz promoter (Ozieri 1942 - Amantea 2013). Isio Saba, who moved to Rome from Sardinia at a young age, where he lived for a lifetime a few steps from Piazza Navona, was intimate with great jazz musicians, from Don Cherry to Nanà Vasconcelos. But it is to the Art Ensemble of Chicago that his name is connected by virtue of a very long association and friendship. Saba is one of the founding members of the Jazz in Sardinia festival with Alberto Rodriguez and has been a collaborator of the most important Sardinian festivals. From that of Calagonone to the other of Santa Anna Arresi. Deep connoisseur of American jazz and unforgettable animator of many reviews throughout Italy.
