Dello Joio. Does the name sound familiar? Justin Dello Joio is the son of Norman Dello Joio, so he grew up with composing and the piano. Justin’s most recent print release is the “Sonata for Piano“. This work is full of energy and intensity, and is dedicated to Vincent Persichetti, with whom Justin studied at the Julliard School. There is a recording of Garrick Ohlsson playing it available at Bridge records (CD9220). Especially if you like 20th and 21st century music, you need to check this out!
