Christmas on Willow Street in Brooklyn Heights

Old friends, new friends. the party went on till the wee small hours of the morning on Willow Street in Brooklyn Heights. I always enjoy the conversations with friends that you may only see once a year but then I came to realize that it's that moment that is special and one that you remember....
The host always provides the best food and everyone is in the holiday SPIRIT...spirit and more spirit...and the Christmas Tree was just decorated with the most beautiful ornaments, as well as those decoratively arranged in the apartment that just held my attention to continue admiring.

I want to thank the hosts for always inviting me; it is more than special when you connect with those that bring happy thoughts and will hold memories until we meet again and have a glass of cheers and a moment to share...the best in the New Year.

Christmas Oh those Happy Holidays



Some might say, home is where the heart is; home is a Christmas where friends meet family; or in some cases your friends are your family.



Those moments that remain cherished memories are bright lights in the dark of night.

Contemporary Woman

She allowed a perfect specimen
to slip away…
She’s a Contemporary Woman
In a vintage way…
“Are your possessions heirlooms?” He inquired.
“No…collections from my past.” She replied.
Ugh, but youth,
remains at bay.
“Safe!”…is all she can say.
She had no intention, to add
another possession
to her heirloom collection.
She’s a Contemporary Woman
in a vintage way.
She collects eyes,
the rest need not stay…

Jazz with Connection Works

While working with my arranger for my latest jazz tune titled
Impossible Situations…
I ran to the subway on W. 14th to hop the #2 train and made it to Park Slope to hear jazz by Connection Works…It took less than twenty minutes from the city, and I arrived at Grand Army Plaza two blocks away is the new Brooklyn Conservatory Concert Hall at the corner of Lincoln Place and Seventh Ave. If you enjoy jazz, then this is where you can hear some of the most incredible musicians, five to exact, play with inspirational rhythm and although at times a bit on the abstract, they worked harmoniously to capture new sounds that for a $10.00 ticket, these guys had my head swinging, toes tapping while dreaming of places inspired to roam, a beautiful space and stage could easy pack more listeners yearning to hear creativity at it’s best. Daniel Kelly on piano was running his fingers across those black and white ebony keys, and drummer Rob Garcia is always in the pocket. Check out Connectionworks.org a non-profit organization that truly brings talent to the stage above and beyond what they collect.
There next gig is January 14, 2012
