Success at the Festival di Noci (an annual Italian jazz event) persuaded Pino Minafra to prolong the life of originally an ad hoc group organized only to play at this festival.
The band consists of circa 18 players including some of Italy's finest free and avant-garde jazz musicians, such as Eugenio Colombo, Gianluigi Trovesi, Mario Schiano, Giancarlo Schiaffini, Carlo Actis Dato, Bruno Tommaso, Enrico Rava etc. Some members leave, some members join but "the core" of the band remains the same.
Music performed by Italian Instabile Orchestra is semi-composed/semi-improvised and maybe this is the reason for slightly ironic word "instabile" in the name of the band.
Body of released works includes "Live In Noci And Rive-De Gier" (1992, Leo Records), "Skies of Europe" (1994, ECM), "European Concerts '94-'97" (1994, Nel Jazz), Litania Sibilante (2000, Enja) and "Previsioni del Tempo: Forecast" (2002, Imprint).
