In The Studio

I've been working on arrangements for many singers from around the world. On Oct. 18th at Shady Canyon Country Club in Irvine, several singers sang a few arrangements I did for them in Aug/Sept of this year. In the next few weeks, some European pop music for which I did music preparation will be recorded in New York, and I'm currently working on some string arrangements which are scheduled to be performed in East Asia next year. More information to follow.

Also, as you may know, this past year the theme at Pageant of the Masters (for which I played for my 6th season and will return in summer 2014) was "The Big Picture" (about movies), so I put together this solo piano CD called "Cinema Amore" with some of my favorite movie love themes, which they were selling in the gift shop at the Pageant, and which, thanks to my friend John Santana, has been getting some airplay on K-Mozart radio in Los Angeles. I may have just sent you a post card about it, actually. But you can also check it out at: http://lapianist.com/cinema-amore-cd/ (unfortunately this invite doesn't come with the glossy photo card, but it plays music...) I am currently running a "Black Friday Special" so you can get my CD for only $7.99 today only.

Feel free to share this email and my links with your friends!

Until next time, have a blessed holiday season!

Sincerely,

John Sawoski
