Album Notes

CinCin is the musical marriage between vocalist/violinist Melissa Cox and pianist Didi Mudigdo that began with a spontaneous performance at a friend\'s wedding in 1998.

Melissa Cox represents a unique combination of musical skills that has earned her accolades both in Australia and overseas. One of the few violinists to embrace jazz convincingly, her flair on her instrument is complemented by a smooth vocal style that endows her performances with warmth. In 2003, Melissa was resident artist at the Tokyo Hilton, and she has performed, recorded and toured with international artists such as Jenny Morris (NZ) and Afro Moses O\'Jah (Ghana).

Didi Mudigdo is the quintessential singer\'s pianist, with a sensitivity in accompaniment that attests to his first jazz piano influence, Nat King Cole. Much in demand among Sydney\'s jazz vocalists, he has performed with the likes of Leonie Page and Catherine Hunter, as well as a host of many other US, European, African, Asian and Australian artists. His playing is moreover imbued with a humour and playfulness that makes each performance a delight to audiences. Didi has performed on the international circuit in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong and China.
