Carlos Franzetti - In the Key of Tango - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

When a composer/pianist of Carlos Franzetti's caliber makes a solo piano recording, it can be quite an event for both the listener and the performer. MAMBO TANGO provides an opportunity for this Grammy Award winning composer to not only showcase his talent as a keyboard player but also gives an exposed look at his compositional and arranging style on some classic fare, along with three original songs.

Franzetti's new recording, Ricordare, takes all of these elements, namely his original compositions, film music and jazz standards, and throws them together with the aid of new trio for an off the cuff recording session. The music made with bassist David Finck and drummer Eliot Zigmund is fresh and inspired, as the recording marks the first time the trio has played together.
