Italian four-member session group who played on soundtrack and library music recordings.
The name I Marc 4 (or Marc 4) comes from the initials of their members:
Maurizio Majorana (bass),
Antonello Vannucchi (Hammond/piano),
Roberto Podio (drums/percussion) and
Carlo Pes (guitar).
Sometimes the ’A’ stood for Italian soundtrack composer
Armando Trovaioli. I Marc 4 played and recorded most of Armando Travaioli’s compositions. I Marc 4 were known for their funky Italian soundtrack style. They also played and record with well known Italian composers like
Ennio Morricone and
Piero Umiliani.
