【Weiwuying Showtime】SU Shen-yu Organ3 Jazz Trio - Ciao Bella
【2021 Weiwuying Showtime】July-December Program Guide
"Ciao Bella" is an Italian phrase used to greet women (literally: hello/goodbye, beautiful). Due to the doubling meaning of ciao, the album Ciao Bella marks a period of change for Organ3 Jazz Band's bandleader, SU Shen-yu, since the birth of his daughter. Shen-yu found inspiration in the three years caring for Bella, his daughter. He recorded the highs and lows, injected rich emotion into the album, and created a musical diary. In the title track, he even included daily conversations with Bella. With Ciao Bella, Shen-yu bids the past farewell, welcomes his newborn into the world, and embarks on a new journey in life. True emotions are thoroughly expressed through free-flowing jazz.
The SU Shen-yu Organ3 Jazz Band was founded by saxophonist SU Shen-yu, electric organist TSENG Tseng-yi, and drummer LIN Kuan-liang in 2018. Ciao Bella, released in 2019, won the Golden Melody Award for Best Instrumental Album. Weiwuying Showtime has invited SU Shen-yu Organ3 Jazz Band to perform their critically acclaimed album. Please join us on an experience of perfect musical chemistry and a paternal diary beyond words.
