...Jay D'Amico "Nocturne" CAP1021
Invention in E minor; M.L. Warmup; Earthday Theme; Prelude in C minor; The Dove; Fantasia; Ballata; Italian Waltz; Irish Invention; Waltz in Db; Invention in Eb; Lullaby; Nocturne Fusing classical concepts with Jazz in a dynamic and pulsating musical experience that will inspire repeated plays regardless of musical tastes. If there is any one word that would describe the music of Jay D’Amico it would be “originality.” I recall reading a book by Igor Stravinsky many years ago in which he stated that if there was any “gift” in music, it would be the gift of melody. Jay, with his ability to successfully fuse classical music thinking and the time conception and influence of jazz, displays evidence that he is in possession of this gift and has crafted it into a musical statement of the highest order. BRAVO! …Mike Longo	Jay D'Amico Greg D'Amico Vinnie Favata Piano Bass Drums
