Internationally renowned pianist/composer/arranger Carlos Franzetti may very well be the greatest Renaissance man in music today, equally at home in the Latin, jazz, classical and popular genres. The versatile Argentine born artist has continually developed his very own sound since first settling in the United States in 1974. A multiple Grammy Award winner and nominee he has proven himself to be a grand collaborator, regardless the field of music, with instrumentalists ranging from Gato Barbieri, Paquito d'Rivera, Jon Faddis, Steve Kuhn and David Sanchez and vocalists Ruben Blades, Kid Creole, Chaka Khan, Laura Nyro, Mercedes Sosa and Marion Williams to myriad chamber groups and orchestras all over the world. On Alborada, the Spanish name for Dawn, Carlos Franzetti's singular talents as a pianist/conductor-composer/arranger truly come to light in the company of his most cherished partner, the highly acclaimed pianist Allison Brewster Franzetti.
