Massimo Urbani
Italian musician From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Massimo Urbani (8 May 1957 – 24 June 1993) was an Italian jazz alto saxophonist. He played principally in the bebop style.[1]
Urbani was born in Primavalle, Rome on 8 May 1957, the oldest of five brothers.[2] His first instrument, from 1968, was the clarinet, but he soon switched to the alto saxophone.[2]
Urbani died of a heroin overdose on 23 June 1993.[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz commented that "Urbani's senseless death robbed Europe of a player whose records are a flawed testament to a bopper of enormous guts and facility."[3]
