This was with the great Charles Strouse 9 years ago right after a concert of his music for the Lyric Chamber Music Society of New York. I performed some of his solo piano pieces and songs with soprano Patricia Sonego. Great composer, best known for his score to the musical Annie, among others. Great times, it was an honour Charles!

Here's a really fun thing I did for the Met Opera's podcast, "Jazz and Opera", produced for the Met's production of Porgy and Bess. I was asked to record a jazz version of (one of) Beethoven's cadenza to his first piano concerto, mixing it up with themes from Porgy and Bess. If you're curious to hear what that sounds like, here's the link! My segment is at 25:52. Hope you enjoy! https://soundcloud.com//ep-174-jazz-and-opera-part-ii-with

I... do not... remember... this... musta been a hell of a night in Belgorod! Thanks Borislav for sharing! :D

A little moment from a very cool video concert I did with violinist Alexandre Da Costa, bassist Eric Lagacé, drummer William Régnier and the Orchestre Symphonique de Longueuil. The concert is called "Barock", and features new rock arrangements of baroque pieces. This clip is from the Bach-Gounod "Ave Maria" (based on Bach's Prelude no. 1 in C). This one is more jazz than rock though, for sure. Hope you enjoy! Voici un petit moment d'un super concert vidéo que j'ai fait avec v...ioliniste Alexandre Da Costa, bassiste Eric Lagacé, batteur William Régnier et l'Orchestre Symphonique de Longueuil. Le concert s'appelle "Barock" et présente de nouveaux arrangements rock de pièces baroques. Ce clip est extrait du "Ave Maria" de Bach-Gounod (basé sur le Prélude n 1 en do majeur de Bach). Celui-ci est plus jazz que rock, c'est sûr . J'espère que ça vous plaît ! See more

tune in if you can!
