A new, in-depth interview with Matteo Prefumo has just been published on the official website of JAZZIT, one of the most respected jazz magazines in Italy.
In this online feature, Prefumo offers a rare glimpse into his creative world — not just how he writes music, but how he listens, thinks, and gives shape to sound.
The conversation goes far beyond surface-level questions and explores themes such as:
- The thin line between composition and improvisation
- How certain melodies take years to fully reveal their identity
- What he means by writing “inevitable music”
- Why he composes at the piano, despite being a guitarist
- His recognition with the Made in New York Jazz Competition Grand Prize and the ISJAC Rule Beasley Prize in Lead Sheet Composition
- and much more…
The article also delves into more personal reflections: the loss of his father, his early relationship with music, and what it means to create something that is both emotionally honest and structurally sound.
Whether you’re a musician or simply curious about the artistic process behind meaningful music, this interview offers depth, nuance, and insight.
