In the world of accordion performance,
Frank Marocco is a giant. Not only for his mastery of the instrument itself, but for his highly developed musicality. In any style, on the concert stage or in the recording studio, his playing is technically brilliant and musically superb.
Frank Marocco is one of the most recorded accordionist in America (and, possibly, the world), having played on a vast number of movie soundtracks, television scores, commercial jingles and record albums, in the studios of Hollywood and beyond. He has recorded for and/or worked with artists ranging from Brian Wilson, Pink Floyd and Madonna to Luciano Pavarotti, conductor Maxim Shostakovich and composer John Williams.
He was nominated eight years in a row for the Most Valuable Player Award by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (N.A.R.A.S) and received that award twice.
Frank Marocco was born in Joliet, Illinois USA, and studied classical Accordion for 9 years in The Chicago area. He also studied clarinet, Piano, Harmony & Theory.
Began his professional career playing in clubs and hotels all over America with a Trio he organized at age 18. Jazz was his first love but the opportunity to make a living playing Jazz was not easy and he eventually made his way west to Los Angeles where he worked as a session studio Musician becoming one of the most recorded Accordionists in the world playing on hundreds of Movie soundtracks, TV shows and record dates.
He has recorded film music with a long list of composers; John Williams, Quincy Jones, Elmer Bernstein, Michele Le Grand, Henry Mancini and dozens of others.
His passion is Jazz and in recent years has been playing concerts in Europe, Japan and Brazil, and the Sata-Häme Soi festival is pleased to welcome Frank for his only Finland appearance!
Frank received a lenghty standing ovation for his tremendous performance of popular Jazz favorites as well as his orgninal pieces.
