KINDERJAZZ!

New KINDERJAZZ CD has arrived!

I've just picked up "The One For Me" our 6th album and I must admit this is our best yet! It features the amazing range of the TUBA played by Brendan Lukin and CONGAS by Aykho Akhrif. You just have to listen to the timbre of this pairing to experience the joy of acoustic sound. It's pure heaven!

It is such an enormous privilege introducing children to great music. As my mentor Leonard Bernstein used to say..."What we perceive with our senses is called the finite world...all things that exist in our reality. What we discover with our heart and soul makes us perceive the infinite world, beyond our intelligence and imagination. Only music can take us there."

Our jazz singer, Debra Dicembre has said "Working with KINDERJAZZ is one of the great joys of my life. the music, the kids, the band - so much fun....we don't have to dumb it down...rather, recognise their (the kid's) maginificence and brilliance....."

Martin Highland (percussion teacher at Sydney Grammar, Fort Street High School and professional Sydney drummer) has said " In an era when many children could be forgiven for thinking that music is solely the product of MP3 players, computers and a myriad of other digital sources, it is refreshing to hear the latest CD from KINDERJAZZ , a group dedicated to presenting live music to younger children. KINDERJAZZ offers children the opportunity to hear quality jazz and latin based arrangements in a format that is both accessible and fun .......a great way for children to discover where music really comes from."

We'll be driving down to Canberra shortly to feature our new CD "The One For Me" at the Floriade Festival. It's free so if you can, come down to Commonwealth Park, Canberra on Oct 2nd, 2007 from 11am - 2pm for a musical feast the whole family will enjoy. If you can't make it, you can purchase a CD here. There is a 100% money back guarantee. The One For Me is also available at iTUNES.
