| Gabriele Tranchina "Of Sailing Ships and the Stars in your Eyes" CD Release Show  Rainchant Eclectic Records Recording Artist Gabriele Tranchina Celebrates The Release Of Her New CD"Of Sailing Ships and the Stars in your Eyes" Wednesday, October 18th at Jazz at Kitano 66 Park Ave New York, NY 10016 Featuring Gabriele Tranchina, voice Joe Vincent Tranchina, piano Andy Eulau, bass Willie Martinez, drums Renato Thoms, percussion A world artist, a jazz vocalist, a creative interpreter, a heavenly sound, a woman with a unique view of music, the world, and of singing. This is just a small description of songbird Gabriele Tranchina. She brings to her music a worldview - using music as a force for wholeness, a source of unity and energy for all. Setting sail into oceans of music, drawing from the world's beauty and versatility. A sailing ship is sure to encounter various adventures in its travels - sunshine, storms, calm waters, and high waves. Of Sailing Ships and the Stars in Your Eyes is a varietal musical adventure that sparkles with shining vocals by a respected world vocalist of broad tastes and distinctive experiences, the amazing Gabriele Tranchina. Each cut found on Of Sailing Ships and The Stars in Your Eyes (Rainchant Eclectic Records, RER1001, Oct 2017) is a side trip to a new destination. Bossa, Latin, swing, ballads, a 7/4, improv.... sadness, hope, joy, relationships, the future... all are there. We are again reminded of how much music is a true and accurate reflection of life itself. Gabriele sets foot on many shores, singing in 5 languages and a vocalese on the 7/4 "A Song for India". This CD is a progression of her desire to explore music and rhythms from different cultures. Gabriele Tranchina, vocalist, is joined on this album by her husband pianist, composer and arranger, Joe Vincent Tranchina, who fills the tunes with unusual textures and shapes, guiding the high-level musicians in the band. His tastes, too, are complex and unexpected and the arrangements add an enormous richness to the overall impact of the individual tunes and the entire album. The other musicians in the band Carlo De Rosa (bass), Grammy award winning Vince Cherico (drums) and Renato Thoms (percussion) each give a distinctive flavor with their individual specialties, contributing unique aspects to each melody and rhythm. Whenever a group of musicians of this highest level gathers, the music they spontaneously create is impossible to categorize or even capture in words. Only listening will truly reveal what has been sculpted as it arose in each moment. write your comments about the article :: © 2017 Jazz News :: home page |
