Giancarlo de Trizio, immigrated from Molfetta, Italy to pursue his musical passion and study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. His determination, courage and tenacity is palpable, as he shares stories of the past 10 years living in the US. As a talented drummer, Giancarlo has performed at the Blue Note Jazz Festival (NYC), Beantown Jazz Festival (Boston), NYC Summer Stage and the Desert Daze Music Festival (CA). He toured with the Broadway productions of “In the Heights” and “Book of Mormon”, and currently substitutes on the Broadway shows “Hamilton”, "Dear Evan Hanson" and "The Lion King".  As a busy, respected free-lance drummer in NYC, Giancarlo performs, records and collaborates with many artists. He has taught master classes at the Musicians Institute (LA), Berklee College of Music (Boston), the University of South Florida (Tampa) and the University of Central Florida (Orlando). Giancarlo has been a juror at Guitar Center’s DRUM OFF, the largest drum competition in the world and is a voting member of the Recording Academy, which awards the GRAMMYs every year. GC proudly endorses Pearl Drums, Zildjian Cymbals, Remo Heads and Vic Firth Sticks. His observations of how culture shapes perception, his insight into personality characteristics reflected in the musical instrument one chooses to play and his personal experiences on immigration are fascinating. I’m confident that this “alien with extraordinary abilities” will intrigue and inspire you! Links:
