Tony Foster Trio: Cinema Paradiso
_From Henry Mancini to Ennio Morricone, pianist and composer Tony Foster and his trio explore and adapt material from some of the greatest film composers of all time. The group will feature classic and lyrical melodies we've all heard and are instantly recognizable, as well as some less known but equally inspiring and powerful pieces! With Tony Foster piano, Sean Cronin bass, Joe Poole drums.
Pianist and composer Tony Foster has performed with such jazz luminaries as Terrell Stafford, Jeff Hamilton, Peter Washington, Ernestine Anderson, Sheila Jordan and many others. Following up his 2009 debut trio release entitled In Between Moods, Foster continues to develop a personal sound at the piano while drawing from key influences such as Ahmad Jamal, Mccoy Tyner, Herbie Hancock, Stan Getz and Ray Brown.
