Video 2 : Performance at the AAA 80th Anniversary Festival. The One (For Stephen Dominko) composed by J. Natoli.

Joseph Natoli would like to announce the first volume of his Chameleon CD set, which contains all original compositions by Joe in many different styles. As the liner notes indicate:

“When it comes to composition, I consider myself a musical chameleon, adapting to any style according to the need and purpose of the composition, just as a chameleon adapts immediately to its current environment. Therefore, I have written music in every possible genre, from contemporary Avant Garde, to quasi-minimalist, jazz, Classical, Baroque, ethnic polkas & waltzes, cinematic, neo-Romantic, ragtime, Latin, and even Pop. This collection hopes to demonstrate and celebrate that diversity of creativity.”
