| Suzanne's Bio | |
|
|
|
|
Suzanne Ciani is a composer, recording artist, and pioneer
in the field of electronic music and sound design. She is best loved for
her eleven albums of original music which feature her performances in
a broad array of expressions: pure electronic, solo piano, piano with
orchestra, and piano with jazz ensemble. Her music, reknowned for its
romantic, healing, and aesthetic qualities, has found a rapidly growing
international audience, and her performances include numerous benefits
for humanitarian causes.

Currently Ciani resides in Northern California where, in 1995, she established her own record label, Seventh Wave. Ciani felt the need to own and control her own creative work. "In many ways, this label represents the culmination of the long journey of my evolution as a recording artist," says Ciani.

In the eighties and early nineties, in order to finance her
recording projects, Ciani brought her expertise to Madison Avenue. Her
New York-based commercial production company, Ciani-Musica, Inc., was
the leader in the field of sound design and TV spot scoring, creating
award-winning music for a host of high profile Fortune 500 clients, including
Coca-Cola, Merrill Lynch, AT&T, and General Electric. Additionally, Ciani
has scored the Lily Tomlin feature 'The Incredible Shrinking Woman', and
'Mother Teresa', as well as scoring for the TV daytime serial 'One Life
to Live'.

In the early nineties Ciani re-located to northern California
to concentrate on her artistic career from her sea-side studio. She has
toured throughout the United States, Italy, Spain, and Asia.
Her many recognitions include five Grammy nominations for Best New Age Album, an Indie nomination for Best New Age Album, numerous Clios, a Golden Globe, and Keyboard Magazineās "New Age Keyboardist of the Year." Ciani is a graduate of Wellesley College and holds a Masters in Music Composition from the University of California at Berkeley. |
