MONIQUE DIMATTINA RELEASES ‘TIDES’ FOR SOLO PIANO

“Monique diMattina has reached that hallowed ground where influences and inspirations coalesce to produce a unique voice” Martin Jones, Rhythms Mag

“A touch, tone and sensibility only found in artists of the highest calibre

Dr Tony Gould AM

“Monique diMattina is one of Australia’s finest composers. Her music is divine”

Clare Bowditch

TIDES is a stunning new album of solo piano compositions from one of Australia’s most accomplished and respected composers, Monique diMattina.

Echoes of Satie, Philip Glass and Lili Boulangère are present in this exquisite collection of piano miniatures, but the compositional voice is unmistakeably Monique diMattina – an artist whose six albums move freely from jazz/roots to classical worlds with rare mastery.

 

Monique, a Fulbright scholar and Yamaha artist, singer/songwriter, marathon runner and mother, has lived and worked in NYC, Europe and China, and is now based in Melbourne where she teaches in the VCA (Melbourne Con) and Monash University jazz departments.  Her ABC and RRR radio segment ‘Shaken Not Rehearsed’ involved writing a bespoke song in an hour to listener requests. She lives in Fitzroy, Melbourne with her two daughters.

Monique diMattina performs TIDES at the JAZZLAB.club Brunswick, Sat 27 March 7.30pm
