My goal in making this contemporary concert jazz recording was first to present pieces that people will enjoy listening to more than once. Music expresses what no words can say, and this music speaks about people, moments in my life, and memorable music that have inspired my eclectic tastes. I also wanted to showcase this incredible group of Philadelphia musicians whose commitment to this project will forever be appreciated. I do hope we plant a few earworms.

about
If you are wondering how Chris got the eerie soprano sound on the opening, it wasn’t done with electronic effects but is the natural resonant result of playing into the open lid of the studio’s grand piano while depressing the sustain pedal. Wonderful Earth Tones came as a result.
