Simcha (Joy) was written during a period of concentrated change and growth for my family and I.  While the inspiration for each of the songs varies, the common thread is joy (simcha).  This joy has been a gift from G-d of strength for me, often transcending circumstance.  My hope is that this music would meet the listener where they are and inspire thought, perspective... and joy.

Simcha (Joy) is a collection of original compositions written for sextet, quintet and trio written by Randy Sandoli. The exception is "The Climb" by bassist, Aaron Rousseau.
