After many failed attempts, countless unnecessary downloads and lots of files in the trash, I finally figured out how to get this video down to a manageable size. I’m like that monkey who writes Shakespeare…
Click here to watch the full, unedited program. The first part is a 20 minute interview with the band members (Jason, Josh Rawlings, Evan Flory-Barnes & D’Vonne Lewis). The second part is a performance by the JPQ. We play three of my original compositions, my arrangement of a traditional Jewish prayer, and the beautiful Sam Rivers composition “Beatrice”.
What I remember most from watching the video is how it was freezing cold in the studio and how sick poor Josh was. Thanks for being able to be in the moment nonetheless and play some beautiful piano, Brother J!
Here are the individual tunes for your viewing pleasure:
Beatrice (Sam Rivers)
Bashert (Jason Parker)
You and Me (Jason Parker)
Tree of Life (trad., arranged by Jason Parker)
Contact (Jason Parker)
Enjoy!
Beatrice!! Wonderful tune played wonderfully by your group. Sounds great Jason. Thanks for sharing this!
