I'm honored to have been selected by The Dallas Jazz Piano Society as the next performer on their series.  The line-up was selected by their artistic director Dan Haerle, who we are thrilled to have as a DSM staff member.  Dan was the main reason I came from New Jersey to study Jazz at North Texas State University, so it has extra meaning to me.

The concert will be from 7-9 PM on Monday 12/12 in Frandsen Hall here at DSM. It is titled "Jazzers Without Borders" and will be a slightly different look at songs that could be considered jazz, like Amber Rubarth and Radiohead, and some different ways to play some standard Jazz songs.

The playlist will be:
All The Things You Are- (1939) Kern/Hammerstein
In Your Eyes- (1986) Peter Gabriel
Full Moon in Paris- (2010)  Amber Rubarth
All Day and All of The Night- (1964) Ray Davies
When I Fall in Love- (1952) Young/Heyman
Oh, What a Beautiful Morning)- (1943) Rogers/Hammerstein

Bye Bye Blackbird- (1926) Henderson/Dixon
“Where This Story Goes”- (2010) Mike Finkel
Jigsaw Falling Into Place- (2007) Radiohead 
“Desert Wind”- (2010) Mike Finkel
Bodhisattva (1973) Fagen/Becker
