Dominic Mancuso (variuos combos pending ..)
BELOW is the concept trailer for MANCUSO Squared (to the power of 2)
Pioneered back in 2000, My brother Vince Mancuso, a nationally renown visual artist, and myself have been commissioned to performed this multimedia show for various presentations. Vince is painting "live" via computer technology. His digital paintings are realized in real time, and projected onto a larger than life sized canvas. Two forms, the visual and the music, synergizing together in concert. Please check it out!

Influences
Too many people, places and things have influenced my work. BUT, I can say with much certainty, if it is passionate and soulful, then it will resonate with me.
HERE is a Project that has the power to influence and inspire. It is a pleasure to perform with Michael Occhipinti's SICILIAN JAZZ PROJECT . visit them at www.thesicilianjazzproject.com
My passion has been to define a hybrid sound which has taken its influence from the culturally diverse world I live in. I compose, produce, perform, play guitars, bass and percussion, and love to express myself with my most favorite instrument, the voice. I've colaborated with visual artists, theatre productions, film makers, and have serviced the corporate industries over the years. Expressing myself musically is what I do !!!
Presently, I perform with Michael Occhipinti's Sicilian Jazz Project, and MANCUSO 2 (a collaboration with visual artist Vince Mancuso)
In 2009 I'll ll be launching my solo project, featured on the release of my next CD, "Comfortably Mine". The CD focuses on a southern Italian repertoire, where I enjoy putting my North American spin on things. Musicians on the CD include: Kevin Adamson/Tony Zorzi/George Koller/Louis Simao/Mark Kelso/Paolo Paolini and Armando Borg.
You can listen to some of the unreleased tracks in the audio component of this site or contact CBC Radio 1 or 2 and request the CD.
