Pictures yourself listening to some really good jazz music in a sublime villa that used to belong to one of Rome's most dangerous criminals. The villa where the Casa del Jazz stands today used to belong to the former ex-boss of the Banda della Magliana, a big, bad street gang in Rome that was notorious for its criminal acts and dealings in the 70s and 80s, until the City of Rome took possession of it almost 10 years ago. Today, this glorious villa puts on some pretty great concerts, lectures and special events surrounding the history of jazz music. At the Casa del Jazz there's also a pretty good cafè and restaurant where one can eat. In the summertime, concerts and other performances are often held outside all'aperto.
