Pianist Alan Pasqua’s career is wide and varied, from his present post as Professor of Jazz Studies at USC, to his early stints with Bob Dylan and Santana, to recording with Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Elton John and Queen Latifah, to multiple collaborations with legendary jazz musicians. He’s equally comfortable in all these worlds and feels each has contributed to his musical development.

Alan Pasqua feels that his CD, a passion project called Soliloquy, reflects his multiple influences and most captures who he is musically today.
