On her 12th release and Motema debut, Roseanna Vitro, The Music of Randy Newman renowned jazz vocalist Roseanna Vitro applies her masterful storytelling panache to the music of RandyNewman, one of America s most prolific and beloved composers. Newman’s wry portraits of life in America and beyond take on fresh dimensions via the fertile imaginations of Vitro, her stellar pianist/arrangerMark Soskin, rising-star violinist Sara Caswell, and a top tier band. "Roseanna Vitro "The Randy Newman Project" Vitro, always a fascinating jazz singer, expands her horizons with her new CD, in which she explores the far-ranging, emotionally diverse musical catalog of Randy Newman. It’s a remarkable album, and the live performance of its selections should make for a compelling musical evening." The International Music Review – Don Heckman
