The Lenny and Susan LaCroix Experience
|
Lenny LaCroix was born in Chicopee, Massachusetts too, many years ago. At age six, he began playing the piano and shortly thereafter started piano lessons. At age twelve, he formed his first band, which he led, played, and arranged for. At age 17, he attended the Hartt College of Music of the University of Hartford.
He completed the four-year course in three years. He was first in his class for the first two years and graduated cum laude. During his undergraduate years, he formed his second band, a jazz quartet, which competed and won second place in the Georgetown Intercollegiate Jazz Festival. After graduation, he went on to attain his Masters’s degree. In 1969, he relocated to Los Angeles, where he has worked as a pianist, arranger, conductor, and composer for a rather eclectic group of clients who include but are not limited to:  The Academy Awards (6 years), Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Barbra Streisand, Debbie Reynolds, Donald O’Conner, Ice Capades, Julie Andrews, Bette Midler, Jim Henson, Shirley MacLaine, Ann Margret, Sid Caesar, and Imogene Cocoa, Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Siegfried and Roy, Carol Burnett, and Lucille Ball.
Lenny and Susan LaCroix have arrived! This awesome twosome will light your fire with their unique, jazz-oriented approach to a variety of great music. Lenny arranges their music with the same creativity he has used for years while working with stars like Barbra Streisand, Ann Margret, Bette Midler, Michael Jackson, and Tony Danza on a multitude of TV variety shows, movies, and live stage productions. Susan delivers those arrangements with the same energetic and warm vocal style that has delighted audiences for years. They love making music together, and you will love the music they make!
