Product Description The music of the mysterious Dodo Marmarosa finds new life in this recording by jazz pianist, arranger, composer and educator Craig Davis. Joined by John Clayton on bass and Jeff Hamilton on drums and recorded in Los Angeles where Dodo found his voice in the progressive form of jazz and bebop, Tone Paintings combines masterful compositions with contemporary arranging and exquisite soloing from the three Masters of Jazz. About the Artist Michael "Dodo" Marmarosa, bebop pianist, composer and arranger who retreated to his childhood home in Pittsburgh after years of touring with several major big bands, including those led by Tommy Dorsey, Gene Krupa and Artie Shaw and recording with leading bebop and swing musicians, including Howard McGhee, Charlie Parker and Lester Young, as well as leading his own bands in the 1940s due to mental health issues.
