Testimonials

Joe

“There are some pianists who dazzle with their touch and technique. There are others who knock you out with their restless creativity or erudition. Then there are those who seduce you by evoking emotions of vulnerability, joy and rage, playing as if they are telling you a story. What makes Joe Chindamo different is that he is one of the few who can integrate all these qualities.”

Leon Gettler, The Age

“Joe Chindamo stands strong for the music in his own unique way. Personality projected through the music is an important factor in determining the ‘uniqueness’ of an artist. Joe is unique and special as his music reflects. He therefore stands alone in many positive ways.”

Billy Cobham

“The artistry of Joe Chindamo is a special case, for his talent is so vast and deep that it transcend both stylistic and cultural considerations. His tone, touch and technique at the keyboard are outstanding in whatever idiom one wishes to place him.”

Tony Gould

“I first met Joe around 10 years ago. During a stay in Melbourne he asked me to play on his record and the music was so wonderfully written, it was a session I never forgot. Several years later we toured Australia with Billy Cobham and it was a pleasure to get to know him also as a great player and person.”

Randy Brecker

“Music loving Australians have long been aware of Joe Chindamo’s prodigious pianistic talents, now it’s time for the world to become aware of his extraordinary musical gifts.”

Mike Nock

“It is always a pleasure anytime I can play with Joe Chindamo. His sense of melodics and improv is a catalyst for my own performance. When we are on the bandstand together, I’m happy just to lay back and listen to Joe’s magic on piano. He is truly a gifted musician.”
