Search - Christina Linhardt :: Circus Sanctuary

Circus Sanctuary, the dynamic saga-esque solo album of singer Christina Linhardt, musically chronicles tales of her eclectic life bouncing from continent to continent, including stories of her magical, yet torrid affair with the Crown Prince of Saxony, her life as a Carnivale entertainer in the Fooles Guild, her travels through African jungles, and time spent training to become a professional fighter (which she never did; music won out). Utilizing an array of musical styles from salsa to reggae to grandiose rock-ballad, Circus Sanctuary covers the gamut of genres, yet is tied together by the unique rock aria style arrangements, and the rhythmic "glue" of world percussionist Angel Luis Figueroa. The core band in recording the album consisted of acclaimed and renowned studio players Dino Meneghin, guitar, Marco Meneghin, drums, Bob Feldman, bass, and John Rangel, keyboards. Sparkling special guest spots include salsa violinist Dan Weinstein, legendary pianist Shelton Berg, sax solos by Bruce Eskovitz, and a cameo piccolo trumpet cadenza by Bill Churchville. Skillfully produced and arranged by Bruce Eskovitz and Christina Linhardt, and masterfully engineered by Glenn Nishida (Pacifica Studios), Circus Sanctuary is a must have for lovers of inventive music, created by artists not industries.
