STORYTELLERS Sunnyside, 2020 Luciana Souza and the WDR Big Band Arranged and Conducted by Vince Mendoza In her short essay that accompanies Storytellers, Luciana Souza says: Songs have always been a mysterious gateway into the human experience and into the cultures from which they spring. They articulate the feelings of being a distinct part of a culture, and they grow out of stories and mythologies that the culture is built upon. Through Vince's unique sonority and his brilliant orchestration we are rewarded with a better understanding of ourselves. To me, as an interpreter of songs, this music presents the most extraordinary opportunity to tell these remarkable stories, invoking sensations and endeavoring to bring meaning into sound.
