“An intimate portrait
of the music of Earl Zindars, and of his own.
I say, Bravissimo! to this fine young musician.
Listen well, and take this refreshing musical
journey with Luciano"
Anne Zindars
A unique, personal piano solo journey inside the
special world of Earl Zindars, prominent
and prolific jazz and classical composer (Chicago
1927- San Francisco 2005)
.Fourteen great compositions from the Earl Zindars
songbook, some of them never released before,
freely adapted by Luciano Troja..
CD
with a 40-page book, rare photos, first-hand
testimonies, about the life of Earl Zindars and
his songs, the fundamental role of the family
for his inspiration, and about his role in the
artistic evolution of Bill Evans.
In fact, Earl Zindars is well-known principally
for the close friendship and musical empathy with
the legendary jazz pianist Bill Evans, who loved,
played and recorded his compositions along his
entire musical career.
Five years long to complete the work: through
New York City, where the CD has been recorded,
and San Francisco where Luciano met the Zindars
family. Anne, the composer's wife, singer,
composer and co-author of many songs, like “How
My Heart Sings”. The daughters: Helene,
a renowned soprano, and Karen, who had an important
run as a classical dancer. They have been very
helpful and loving with Luciano to deepen the
personality of Earl Zindars.
The CD contains also “Roses For Annig”
the final piece of Earl Zindars, composed
less than a month before he passed away, dedicated
to Anne, his beloved wife for 43 years.
All
compositions by Earl Zindars
except “How My Heart Sings” written
by Anne & Earl Zindars
and “Earl And Bill” written by Luciano
Troja

Mannahatta is the native name of
Manhattan.
This CD is the result in sound of a New York experience.
In April 2006, we played seven concerts in eight days
in some of the avant-garde locales in Downtown Manhattan.
Even though the concerts were based on composed and
improvised material, each one generated new forms, developing
possible new sounds.
After just a couple of those performances, we felt we
were interacting with the Energy of the metropolis.
It was as though the Energy was welling up from the
ground the city stands on to pervade our music more
with each playing.
After the last concert, we decided to record a suite
of 15 movements, right there in a studio in Manhattan.
Casting off all labels, we tried to find a straightforward,
primitive way of tackling how we were seeing and feeling
New York and its and our music.
