NEWS

NEW! Listen to part of the title track from my upcoming CD, From This Place.

And more clips From This Place: Here are two four-part vocal tracks with myself, Laila Biali, Peter Eldridge, and Kate McGarry: Gloria and Keep in Mind. More clips are up at my sacred music page.

Don't forget that you can pre-order a copy of the CD at my recordings page at any time (a free mp3 will be emailed to you upon receipt of your order).  

Interview on Judy Carmichael's Jazz Inspired: Recently I had the privilege of being interviewed by the brilliant stride pianist and radio host, Judy Carmichael, on her weekly jazz radio program. The entire hour long show is available here.

More summer gigs: On August 8, the trio is at the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage in DC. I'll go solo during the week of August 11 at Bryant Park's annual Piano in the Park series (if you buy me lemonade, you can request a tune).

Links: myspace; one of my tracks: Beautiful Hands, the first tune on Length of Days.

Length of DaysLength of Days
If, among contemporary pianists, Brad Mehldau and Bill Charlap represent the gold standard, then Deanna Witkowski deservedly ranks as their sterling sister. -Christopher Loudon, JazzTimes

Wide Open Window
Witkowski is not far from jazz stardom with her keyboard techniques, her imaginative composing and arranging, and her wordless vocalizing. Remember her name.
-Harvey Siders, JazzTimes

Having to Ask
Deanna's spirit- and her spirituality- come through on this consummate debut, and that spirit is astonishing.
-Don Glasgo, Jazz Improv

Sacred Music
Deanna's sensitive, searching musical voice beckons you to join her explorations of the spirit.
-Cary Ratcliff, composer
