About the Artist

Performing a new original eclectic mix of pop hits, jazz, rock,

American songbook, Brazilian, Latin, original compositions

and other novelty fun tunes!

“There are always interesting things hiding in the city’s cultural corners.

Here are two. The first is called “Two” and it’s CD featuring Chicago

Joanie Pallatto, teamed with the exciting pianist Marshall Vente.

The song selections are wonderfully eclectic, from “As Time Goes By”

to the Kurt Weill/Ira Gershwin tune “My Ship” to the Doors’

“Light My Fire.” The performances are dazzling.”

-Rick Kogan, Chicago Tribune

“… Vente is a strong pianist who can do both solid accompaniment and produce eye-opening solos.  Joanie Pallatto has produced her best session so far and Marshall Vente sounds like someone to watch out for.”

– Jerome Wilson, Cadence review of “Two”
