SUMMARY:Dimitri Moderbacher Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Austrian-American musician Dimitri Moderbacher's debut CD\
	, Close To My Heart\, showcases his unique compositional style and mel
	odic sensibility. Recorded live at SoHo's Kavehaz in February 2002\, t
	his remarkable CD features seven original compositions. Close To My He
	art draws on the talent of German guitarist Sandra Hempel\, bassist Ph
	il Palombi and drummer Jason Wildman. Since moving to New York City in
	 1998\, Dimitri Moderbacher Quartet has performed at Kavehaz\, the 55 
	Bar and Cornelia Street Cafe. The quartet also played every Sunday for
	 over three years at Cafe Creole in the West Village. Other performanc
	es include the St. Lucia Jazz Festival\, the Knitting Factory\, the Wo
	rld Creole Music Festival\, Detour\, WCSU Annual JazzFest\, UpOver Jaz

	le performers as Aretha Franklin\, Norah Jones\, Harold Mabern\, Charl
