Australian/New York musician Monique diMattina leads a triple life as a jazz/roots singer songwriter, ballet mother/cake-baker and composer of exquisitely crafted piano miniatures. Sun SIgns displays her third personality in characteristically succinct tones, and is very much a second chapter to diMattina's 2007 solo piano album Senses - praise for which is collected below. DiMattina's fresh, contemporary compositional voice reflects diverse influences from Bach through French Impressionism to subtle echoes of the jazz/blues tradition. Music that feeds the mind while it calms the soul. Timeless piano dreams and improvisations - the thinking person's zen escape. The Village Voice, NYC Beautiful, spacious, spare - Lucky Oceans, ABC Daily Planet Atmospheric, thoughtful. Calm notes with a sharp intelligence. Sue Roberts, BBC Radio 4 Cherishing each note she plays and the spaces between them. Doug Spencer, ABC The Planet Exquisite Julia Lester, ABC Classic FM Drive Stunning Derek Guille, ABC 774 3LO Delicate, calm, contemplative - to be played while reclining on the couch daydreaming. Mary Downes, Herald Sun This exquisite recording is a wonderful example of the creative spirit in the music of Monique diMattina. It is enhanced by a tone, touch and sensitivity at the keyboard which can only be found in artists of high caliber. A beautiful listening experience. Dr Tony Gould, Dean, VCA School of Music.
