Paris Night By Giovanni Marradi

Giovanni Marradi is one of my favorite pianists. He is a composer and arranger as well. According to Wikipedia, he was born the son of the famed Italian trumpeter and conductor Alfredo Marradi; his great-grandfather, also named Giovanni Marradi, was a legendary poet and composer as well.

Giovanni began playing piano at age five, and three years later was sent to study composition and technique with Michael Cheskinov at the Russian Conservatory. In the years to follow, he emerged as a remarkably prolific composer. He also hosted his own weekly television series, Giovanni's World of Music. Destiny was his debut ablum. Giovanni will soon release his latest CDs, "Because I Love You" and "Softly".
