This recording captures the first annual “Jazz at the GRJC” concert … the fulfillment of my goal to bring a New York City jazz club experience to my hometown of Glen Rock, NJ. To do this, I reached out to one of the best pianists in the jazz scene, Misha Piatigorsky. Misha and I met many years ago and this concert was the perfect time to collaborate. Having been immersed in Misha’s original compositions and arrangements, I knew exactly which songs to perform.
to round out the trio…
…I called my long-time friend, bassist Charlie Dougherty, and as a special guest, enlisted my brother, Jeremy Fishman, on alto sax.
THERE IS MAGIC…
…embedded in this recording, fueled by the spark of spontaneity that can only be achieved in a live performance.
THIS IS THE BEAUTY OF JAZZ…
…capturing a moment in time and creating a musical conversation that may never happen again in the same way.
