“As anyone familiar with the Boston scene knows, there are few things finer than hearing Ray take on an acoustic piano. This night, he decided to put on a clinic. It was a master indulging in the sheer joy of tackling the possibilities (maybe the impossibilities) of the instrument." —Stu Vandermark, CADENCE Magazine
Gifted at assembling the right team of musicians who draw jazz aficionados, Santisi enthralls an appreciative audience wherever he books. His following is loyal to his repertoire and his mastery. Santisi combines protégés and legends side-by-side on his bandstand and can be counted on to lead his group with originality and precision. He is a demanding music director and bandleader and musicians say “yes" when he calls.
Ray Santisi, pianist/arranger/composer, is an internationally known jazz composer, arranger and bandleader who has played as featured soloist with Charlie Parker, Stan Getz, Mel Torme, Irene Kral, Natalie Cole, and countless other well-known jazz greats.
