SUMMARY:​Casa Della Zisa featuring Scott Cossu & Lonnie Mardis
DESCRIPTION:Scott Cossu & Lonnie Mardis  \nPlease email casadellazisa@gmail.com for more information. \nThe name of Scott Cossu is one that long-time fans of new age music will be familiar with. This highly regarded pianist/composer was one of the very first artists on Will Ackerman and Alex De Grassi’s legendary Windham Hill Records label\, which Scott recorded on for nineteen years. In fact\, Windham Hill piano icon George Winston used to open for Scott in concert in the early years. Scott’s music has a warm mellow vibe that will be enjoyed by Windham Hill fans as well as a wider audience. Whether it is jazz\, new age\, or whatever\, Scott humorously refers to his music as “Heavy Mental” or “Cosmic National Geographic.”

It was a beautiful event that really brought a sense of unity among all who were there. I’ve already heard from a few of our choir members’ families that they found the experience profound and moving\, especially hearing you share your story and instrumental piece [Romanza by Antonio Rubira] as the Sing Here Now group took the stage.”  Jenny Herget MPH\, Early-Stage Program Coordinator\, Alzheimer’s Association Oregon Chapter \nSOL 2016 raised $1556 for the Alzheimer Association \n“The music last night was outstanding!

I have been sick all week and thought I might not be able to go\, but my wife protested\, “It’s become our tradition!” R.M. \n“The opening ensemble was fantastic. I hope we get to hear more of this in the future? After intermission I looked at the program and realized that there was so much yet to come. The trio of singers was a highlight\, a wonderful juxtaposition of different faith tradition voices\, that while terrific individually\, combined into something grander. It really struck me how much they epitomized the Season of Lights message. On the way home I asked my wife if she liked that part and she said she teared up at point in the program.” R.B. \n“Thank you so much for bringing all these wonderful musicians together to share with us their joy and especially\, you with your beautifully playing.” I.W. \n“SOL 2016 “was such a lovely event with beauty\, love and community.” M.G. \n“Last night was so uplifting and deeply moving\, and it was a great joy to be connected to all of you in intention and in music.” Ilene Safyan\, Cantor at Neveh Shalom & Havurah Shalom
