Ada Montellanico is one of the most important and innovative singers and composers of the Italian jazz scene. She has collaborated with many famous artists, enjoying great success with both critics and the audience alike at many of the biggest and the most prestigious Italian and foreign jazz festivals.
She is a performer with a great warm and husky voice, a great researcher of unusual and original repertoire, and she has an ability, like none other, to find a magical fusion between Italian language, jazz and improvisation.
Since 2013 she has been combining her artistic activity with that of the associative commitment within the jazz field. She founded and chaired the association Midj and Ijvas and is now president of the Italian Jazz Federation.
