    Louis Landon

    Sedona News (August 4, 2021) On Sunday, August 15, starting at 7 p.m. famed composer, pianist and Steinway artist Louis Landon plays his farewell concert at Sound Bites Grill in Sedona.

    With eight years under his belt performing in and around Sedona, writing and recording 41 albums throughout his career of which 35 are solo albums of his own compositions, Landon is finally saying goodbye to Sedona as he heads for more peaceful and greener pastures.

    “I have so much appreciation for the people and the experience of living in Sedona, said the former New York native who came to Sedona almost a decade ago. “It’s been a great eight-year run here. Right now, I’m looking for acreage, a place to live where I can kick back and live out the third chapter of my life in a peaceful and quiet environment.”

    Landon’s music, which covers almost every musical style, has garnered.141 million streams on Pandora Radio and 34 million streams on Spotify. He will be releasing his latest album titled “It’s a Good Life” and five singles from the CD in September. Landon’s music can be heard on Spotify on his playlist, “The Complete Solo Piano Music of Louis Landon.”

    He will be joined by two of Sedona’s finest musicians: Eddie Barattini on drums and Troy Perkins on bass.

    Landon reflected on his long career in music.

    “It’s definitely not a straight career path,” he said. “I’ve been playing piano for 65 years and professionally for 55 years,” he said. “I tell people I suffered for 58 years and the past 11 years have been off-the-charts amazing.”

    “I am one of the luckiest musicians on the planet and I know it,” he said.  I am grateful beyond words. When creative music calls it’s something one is compelled to do no matter what. The Universe conspired to give me a break and I am so grateful.”

    Don’t miss this grand finale to a wonderful life of music well played at Sound Bites Grill this coming weekend.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
