About / Biography

Beta Jazz Duo is a project formed by two friends and musicians from Florence: Elisa Barducci on vocals and Niccolò Martinelli on guitar.


The repertoire of this Florentine duo features a selection of the most well-known and beloved pieces from the international jazz tradition, including classics like “Autumn Leaves,” “All of Me,” “Days of Wine and Roses,” and many more — all sung by Elisa’s warm voice and accompanied by Niccolò’s guitar, enriched by the dynamic rhythms created with a loop station that enhances the duo’s sound.

The project is equipped with a compact amplification system, usable even without access to electricity, making the duo fully self-sufficient and adaptable to any type of venue, and offering in addition the possibility to play background music during the breaks thanks to the AUX plug of the amplificator.

What's your favourite type of event?

We love playing at all sort of events but weddings are our favourite! The guest always love our music!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Elisa, the singer, has a long history of experience gained over the years, having performed in a variety of different projects and developing her skills across multiple musical genres.
Niccolò, the guitarist, has also built up a wide range of experiences, playing—like Elisa—in several projects spanning different styles. In addition, he studied and graduated from the conservatory at the Siena Jazz National Academy, and is currently pursuing further studies at the Florence Conservatory.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

One of our favorite bands is Radiohead, the iconic English group that has given us a great deal of inspiration — musically and beyond. They are one of our shared influences, but many other artists also shape our taste and musicality, including Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Stevie Wonder, and many more.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We normally arrive between 1 and 2 hours before the event, depending on the needs of our costumers.
The most of the gigs we partecipated to were constituted by two sets of 45 minutes, or 2 sets of 60 minutes, to cover an amount of 2 / 2 and a half hours, but everything is customizable with no problems!


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, we love performing in the outside; our only need is to have a warm and dry place to perform, for our instrument’s health.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Sure, our clients often suggest a number of tunes, personalizing the event based on the agreement we've made with them.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Our costumers until now always enjoyed our performances, describing those as warm, romantic and sweet.


How many tunes can the costumers choose included in the price?

Our standard price includes 2 tunes, then it is possible to add more of them with an overprice, which has to be agreed both from musicians and costumers.
