Suoni diVini – Jazz & Wine Festival

Suoni diVini 2025: three nights of jazz and wine in Specchia

The sixth edition of Suoni diVini – Jazz & Wine Festival animated the ancient village of Specchia (Lecce) from Friday, July 25 to Sunday, July 27, 2025, under the artistic direction of Carmine Zocco for Risonanze Eventi d'Arte, the Pro Loco of Specchia, and Puglia Rewind. Every evening, starting at 9:30 PM, the courtyards of Palazzo Risolo and the streets of the historic center combined live music and wine culture.

The festival offered three different faces of jazz: the vocal elegance of the Patrizia Conte Quintet at the opening, the encounter between jazz and folk/Brazilian roots with Aquele Abraço and Francesca Leone & Guido Di Leone Quartet (special guest Daniele Scannapieco), and finally the itinerant warmth of New Orleans dixieland with the Dixie Héritage. Accompanying the concerts were tastings of Apulian, French, and Spanish wines with cheeses and typical products, accessible via a dedicated pass.

Friday, July 25, 2025 — 9:30 PM (Palazzo Risolo courtyard)

• Patrizia Conte Quintet — a journey through the most beautiful jazz melodies, between standards and refined reinterpretations. Line-up: Patrizia Conte (vocals), Peppe Fortunato (keyboards), Pino Mazzarano (guitars), Vito Di Modugno (bass), Mimmo Campanale (drums).

Saturday, July 26, 2025 — 9:30 PM
