Ten Tunes description

 

Listeners have written that a cool vibe and easygoing joy permeate the ten tunes--each of which has a strong, emotion-packed melody, some fresh harmony, and a powerful, world-music inspired groove; and you’ll hear frequent surprises, twists and turns.

 

I wrote the ten tunes with two goals in mind:  create some music that will show what the clarinet can do in a variety of world-groove settings; and take advantage of the sounds and creative abilities of the three fine musicians who join me on this recording.
