Search - genaro santoro sam viviano, The Sound of Three Hands :: The Retelling of Dreams

Genaro, using both hands, and Sam his left hand alone, have formed the unique musical team "The Sound of Three Hands". The keyboard duo draws not only upon their consummate pianistic skills (both Juilliard-trained pianists have enjoyed succesfull concert careers here in the US and in the Middle East and Africa), but also upon their creativity as composers - all of the music on the CD was jointly composed by the two artists. The duo uses acoustic pianos, digital pianos and synthesizers to realize their creative ideas as musical colorists and storytellers. "The Retelling of Dreams" is a collection of 18 brief tableaux evoking the emotional states associated with dreams. The title refers to dreams in sleep, as well as wishes, visions and fantasies. The music is rich in melody, sensuous in sound, tonal and unabashedly lush.
