Change was a producer-led Italo-American studio project created by Jacques Fred Petrus and Mauro Malavasi, active around the early 1980s and noted for polished R&B/disco records featuring vocalists such as Luther Vandross and James Robinson.

Produced and directed by Jacques Fred Petrus with arrangements by Mauro Malavasi; early records (notably The Glow of Love, 1980) featured Luther Vandross. Subsequent albums included Miracles (1981), This Is Your Time (1983) and Change of Heart (1984), the last produced with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. Reviews note strong bass work by Davide Romani, guitar by Paolo Gianolio, contributions from Timmy Allen, Deborah Cooper as a female vocalist, and that the project was part of the Goody Music label. The Glow of Love achieved high positions on R&B charts according to reviews; the Goody Music operation ended after the murder of producer Jacques Fred Petrus as reported in the reviews.
