Gazebo is the stage name of Paul Mazzolini, an Italian singer, songwriter, musician and producer born in 1960, whose name is tied to the Italo disco sound of the '80s. He plays piano and guitar as well as singing, and his records came out on Baby Records.
His debut single "Masterpiece" travelled well beyond Italy, but "I Like Chopin" is the one that conquered the map, reaching number one in more than 15 countries. It's easy to hear why: a melancholy piano figure, a lush bed of synthesizers and a crooner's vocal with a faintly lost, late-night air, pure Continental romance with a dance beat underneath.
