Liner Notes
Celebrating Rochester's landmarks through
music. The music of Rochester's artists sores above the
city's physical landmarks and is as enduring as the buildings
that inspired them. Welcome to our unique collection of
music performed by Rochesterians. Some of the artists
featured in this collection now live elsewhere, but they
continue to call Rochester home. Listen and enjoy
Rochester's Landmarks in Music.
"Without question, 'Rochester' is by far
the toughest word I've ever had to use in a lyric of mine." Chuck
Mangione defines love. Love of music, family, and
Rochester. It is poetic justice that Bellavia,
named to honor his mother, brought Chuck his first Grammy
Award. The son of an Italian-American grocer, Chuck was
born in Rochester on November 29, 1940. Locals remember
the Jazz Brothers, a group formed by Chuck (trumpet) and his
brother Gap (piano) before Chuck left home to play with Art
Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. He returned to the Flower
City to accept the position of director of the Eastman School of
Music's Jazz Ensemble. Soon thereafter, however, Chuck
would leave again to pursue his solo career in earnest and
release an extraordinary series of original recordings including
Chase The Clouds Away, Bellavia, The Children
Of Sanchez, and Feels So Good. Chuck is once
again on tour delighting audiences around the world. Back
