Carmen CAVALLAROAlone Together - The Art Of The Cocktail Piano
 
The selection presented here showcases the
scintillating piano style of Cavallaro accompanied by his discrete rhythm. If it
reminds you of the Cocktail Bar in your favourite hotel, well and good, or
perhaps of the quietly performed pianistics accompanying a memorable dinner
party in some elegant dining room. They might be reminiscent of what Jack
Strachey and Harry Link wrote in their song "These Foolish Things" when they
referred to the tinkling piano in the next apartment. But, of course, there can
be nothing foolish about Carmen Cavallaro’s piano! The tunes span a period from
who knows when ("Santa Lucia") but more positively 1880’s "Funiculi Funicula",
written by Luigi Denza to celebrate the opening of Naples’ funicular railway, to
the magical compositions of Rodgers and Hammerstein for their 1949 Broadway
musical "South Pacific".The melodies of Broadway are well represented by "Alone
Together" and "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World" and "Smoke Gets In Your
Eyes".
