NEW CENTURY CHAMBER ORCHESTRA PERFORMS MY ARRANGEMENT OF "TODO SENTIMENTO" BY CRISTOVÃO BASTOS & CHICO BUARQUE AT SYMPHONY SPACE, NEW YORK CITY, 2011.  

Todo Sentimento - Cristovão Bastos & Chico Buarque - arr. Clarice Assad

Violinist, pianist, chamber and orchestral musician, devoted to composing neo-classical music. 

I want to weave a gentle, emotional orchestral language, that speaks about live and touches the heart. I try to capture these ephemeral, timeless, and moving moments, transcribing them with devotion to sound and recording them in the sound studio.

The music creations are a testament to the value of retreat,
where silence gives birth to the most profound expressions, contrapuncting the noise of our world.

Thanks for your kind listening and commenting !

Hi, I'm Jean-Charles.
I'm a music lover, but you probably guessed that if you're here.
I am proud to be a "Ch'ti". For those who don't know, it means I come from Northern France, a land known for its values of human warmth, simplicity, and friendliness. That said, I was "adopted" by the Jura region. It was there, through the Besançon International Competition for Young Conductors, that I discovered classical music from a fascinating angle that deeply left its mark on me.
I love the diversity of music and cultures. I have a special affection for the recorder, opera, piano, zither, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, pan flute, and harmonica.
My goal here, through my reposts, is to offer you a journey through time and space.
In this regard, I want to express my immense respect for Pandora Records. Founded by Al Goldstein, this visionary label chose, after ceasing operations, to release its entire back catalog under an open license. A large part of the tracks I share here comes from this invaluable archive. Thanks to their generosity, we can rediscover these historical interpretations (often on period instruments) that might otherwise have been forgotten.
Thank you all for the talent you share here.
Wishing you great listening and happy discoveries!

“… a serious triple threat… a veritable musical dynamo.” – San Francisco Chronicle

A bold composer, a brilliant pianist and an inventive vocalist all rolled into one, Clarice Assad floats freely across musical idioms, drawing on an array of sounds from Amazon forest wildlife to operatic arias. A classically-trained pianist, Assad is deeply rooted in the earthy, folkloric rhythms of Brazil, capturing the attention of international audiences with her stunning talent. The term “world music” is redundant when applied to her style, a reflection of Brazil’s musical melting pot heritage of African rhythms mixed with European melodies and harmonies. 

I am a fledgling film maker and musician.  You can see my movie work on my YouTube website - http://www.youtube.com/bobandtrudimovies  So far, my movies have been stop-motion music videos.  I joined Soundcloud to showcase my new music.  I welcome any comments on my work, positive or negative, . . . but positive is better!  :-)

And, for a number of years, I took guitar lessons, and completed all 7 Mel Bay books.  BANG!  :-)

I hope that you enjoy my work!  I can also be reached at bobsherman264@gmail.com

Attention: I DON'T HAVE FACEBOOK NOTICE: (9-04-13, 10:00 AM) About an hour ago, I canceled my Facebook account.  I never use it.  And within 15 minutes, the black helicopters started flying over my house.  And now I see big black SUV's driving by every half hour.  And I think that my cell phone might be tapped.  I keep hearing these clicking noises on the line!  So I guess I can also assume that this e-mail is being monitored.  I just hope that they don't come here to get m . . .
