Review: A remarkable CD recording, full of harmonic surprises and topnotch performances, this collection will capture your attention immediately. KEEPING TIME is jazz interpretations of music covering advent, Christmas, epiphany, lent, passion, Easter, pentecost, and ordinary time musical themes.
There are thirteen songs on the CD. Among the many fine musical journeys are such songs as "Shenandoah," "Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming," "Waking Up Happy," "Fairest Lord Jesus," Song For Ordinary Time," and "Holy God, We Praise Your Name." Each song has a distinct and creative jazz approach.
You will discover this is one of the most unusual collections of music in a long while. Each song speaks great jazz motifs.
Highly recommended. Nelson Boschman is a fine jazz pianist, his performance techniques unique.
