Internationally Unknown: A Life in Music

by Michael Valenti, Leonard Deutsch (Editor), Lance Evans (Photographer)

Michael Valenti’s life has been a life in music. Growing up in New York City, and growing his dynamic career there. Manhattan has been one of the world epi-center’s of music, from Broadway to classical, and Mr. Valenti has written music for every medium. He has composed the scores to Broadway shows, for shows at Lincoln Center, and so much more. His life’s work is even included in the Lincoln Center Archives.
But this life in music has had many challenges, with great ups, and his fair share of downs. Along the way he has collaborated with and been best of friends with some of the most influential players in the performing arts of New York City, and around the world.
“Internationally Unknown” gives the reader a deep look into the world of New York City’s music scene, behind the scenes of Broadway productions, and the life of one of our most prolific and talented living composers. This is a must read for those in the field, and those that wish to be.

Now I do know Michael Valenti!

Well, at least I know about part of his career, and what a life he has had.
I am privileged to have had a wonderful friendship with one of his many cousins , Victoria Nocito Haley Ralston.
Did not know what a talented cousin she had.
