Joe Traina Septet "Tip of the Hat" compact disc

Donation protected
It is my goal to bring the highest quality recording of jazz versions of the best in the American popular songbook.

Over the past thirty years, I have been extremely fortunate in performing with, promoting and recording musicians who are among the best in jazz. 

It has been my pleasure and my privilege to paint an audio portrait of these artists in a format that strives for excellence. 

This CD features songs and treatments designed to honor legendary musicians such as Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman and the bands that made them famous. 

I encourage you to sample the numerous recordings I have made that are available on YouTube from my past records "Tea for Two" and "Ten by Eleven." 

Musicians that contributed to these records include two-time Grammy Award nominee arranger/trombonist/singer Pete McGuinness, tenor saxophonist Mike Karn, trumpeters Greg Gisbert and Scott Wendholt, pianist Tim Regusis, bassist Sean Smith and drummer Scott Neumann. 

Each of these artists are accomplished in performance, arranging and teaching. 

I humbly ask you to donate what you can to help me realize my goal. 

In these perilous times for all creative arts, your donation has real meaning. 

Help support and preserve a uniquely American art form. 

Thank you very much for your consideration.
