?Pieranunzi: This CD has a very special meaning for me. Remembering Chet takes me back to 1979 when I first met him. That meeting would soon prove to be a turning point in my musical life. Playing together, sharing concerts or recording sessions with him allowed me to be in close contact with an artist of rare Jazz experience who caused an enormous change in my playing. Many of the tunes on this CD come from those important years of collaboration.
