Roseanna Vitro and Clarity
Grammy Nominated Vocalist, Roseanna Vitro and Clarity (formerly The Randy Newman Project Band), release their new cd. "Clarity, Music of Clare Fischer," on Random Act Records (9/30/14). Like her previous tribute outings -- 1997’s Catchin’ Some Rays: The Music of Ray Charles, 2001’s Conviction: Thoughts of Bill Evans and 2011’s The Music of Randy Newman -- Vitro puts a unique spin on Fischer’s music, courtesy of pianist Mark Soskin’s ambitious arrangements. Joined by her core crew from the Randy Newman project -- bassist Dean Johnson, drummer Tim Horner and violinist Sara Caswell -- along with special guests Mino Cinelu on percussion Clare’s son Brent Fischer on vibes, Vitro delves headlong into Clare’s world. On this heartfelt project, Roseanna Vitro pays tribute to a real musicians’ musician. It has taken almost two years to cultivate lyrics for Clare Fischer songs that have never been sung before. On Clarity, Vitro focuses on the man’s lifelong passion for bossa nova and Afro-Caribbean music, plus a swinging dedication to Duke Ellington.
