The presence of Marco Tamburini — then 42-year-old — increases in the compact in a dazzling quartet with Marco Piacentini, Piero Leveratto and Marco Tonin.

On May 18, 2001 the Syracuse singer was invited to Brescia to open the first “Jazz and Literature Review” as a great interpreter of the vocalese and exemplary continuator of the meeting between bop and poetry, born in San Francisco with the Beat Generation.

At the age of 69, Murphy fully maintained the adventurous, eclectic and passionate style that had made him a cult figure in a limited circle of admirers.

He received awards in Down Beat critics, but he was too personal to respond to the tastes of mass audiences, like Tony Bennett or Frank Sinatra did.

His nature as an extrovert and eccentric improviser, always reckless, emerged best in front of small audiences, generally in a club.
