Sebi Tramontana

Sebi Tramontana is an Italian trombonist from Sicily working in free improvisation and avant-garde jazz. He was a member of the Italian Instabile Orchestra, and he is known for a style that combines the trombone with his own voice and extended breathing techniques, in a line of European trombonists that runs from Albert Mangelsdorff to Giancarlo Schiaffini. As a leader Tramontana released Il Giorno del Santo (WIND, 1992) and recorded Schz! with Georg Graewe for Splasc(h). With the Instabile Orchestra he appears on Skies of Europe (ECM) and The Owner of the River Bank with Cecil Taylor.
