The distinctive style of Honest Touch creates a cinematic and emotional musical
approach - a crossroads of New Age Pop, Piano and Orchestral music.
Honest Touch is a project rather than a traditional band formed
by Fofi Maniadaki and Samy Elgazzar and based
in Athens, Greece. The project is backed by a seven-piece band, the Amadeus
Orchestra (in some songs the Philarmonia
Bulgarica) and the Fons Musicalis Choir. The
project plays instrumental music composed and arranged by Samy, with Fofi
as piano soloist.
Mastering engineer Vlado Meller (Sony Music Studios) who is
credited for albums by Barbara Streisand, Prince, Celine Dion to name but a
few, put his sonic expertise in the debut album “Memories
From A Dream”.
In 2005, the album was released on Polytropon Records and
distributed by Universal Music.
A producer from Taxi.com, the world’s
leading independent A&R company, made the following critique:“the music is top quality as
well as the production...” You are invited to visit the official
web site to listen
to the music samples and learn more about the project. In the online store you
may order your copy of the debut album, sheet music and merchandise. Feel free
to contact Fofi and Samy; your comment and feedback are immensely welcomed.
