Tim Dickeson looks forward to this year’s Umbria Jazz’s 50th anniversary – that runs from 7 – 16 July. Set in the beautiful and ancient City of Perugia it has long been the shining star of the Italian jazz scene. The festival was conceived and has been run for all this time almost single handed by one man - Carlo Pangotta
