Considering that we had just one short rehearsal, I think it came together quite nicely. Performing to a sold out, full capacity audience always helps! On this track there is some truly stellar soloing from trumpeter Josh Evans, trombonist Sara Jacovino, and bari saxophonist Lauren Sevian.
Enjoy!
Billy Strayhorn's motto, "Ever Up and Onward" seemed an apt title for the ruminations of a composer/arranger, jazz pianist, music educator, husband, father and Christian.
