This Holiday Season, All About Jazz is All About Guaraldi
Vast audiences were first introduced to jazz through a cartoon special about Charlie Brown's uneasy relationship with Christmas… And many more were attracted by the sound of the early cross-over hit, “Cast Your Fate To The Wind“… It's fair to say that composer/pianist Vince Guaraldi helped shape the landscape of popular jazz, bringing generations along with ...

Lyric Fury, The Adventurous Octet Led By Pianist/Composer Cynthia Hilts, Debuts On Record January 13
Twenty years ago, Brooklyn-based pianist/composer Cynthia Hilts was seeking to form a band “that sounds like a celestial collision of Mingus and Debussy” as a vehicle for her brisk, striking originals.
