Heart and Hands
This recording was born out of a recital I played that featured music from the 1960's. The songs that I love from Bacharach and Mancini had such beautiful melodies and peaceful vibes, that I wanted to turn it into a full length solo guitar recording of arrangements and a few originals. My nylon-string guitar matches the mellow mood of the tunes. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=mark+mazzatenta&i=digital-music&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
Mazzjazz--The Balance
The Balance is the first recording by the band Mazzjazz. A very ambitious project, it includes music styles for everyone: smooth jazz, modern jazz, improvisation, some guitar synth, some sax, melodic ballads, and 2 intimate duets by the Mazz Brothers.
