This is a demo recording of my arrangement/re-interpretation of the jazz standard "Almost Like Being In Love," that I recorded in December 2023. 

Note: Because this is a demo recorded at home, it uses MIDI instruments. The recording project I am requesting funding for will be recorded with 100% live musicians.

Almost Like Being In Love

Autumn in Texas brought to you by myself, Henry Dickhoff on piano, and Aaron Holthus on bass. 

Composed by Henry Nemo.

'Tis Autumn

Maybe (Live Dazzle Recording)

KerryMarsh.com proudly features this six-movement vocal jazz mass composed by Justin Binek. As you'll hear, this is a powerful, fresh harmonic and rhythmic approach to the traditional "Kyrie", "Gloria", "Credo", "Sanctus", "Agnus Dei" and "Nunc Dimittis". 

Performable by both traditional and jazz choirs, and with piano accompaniment only or full rhythm section, Missa Lucis features a male vocal soloist throughout in the traditional evangelist role. The recording featured here is an edited compilation of all of the choral excerpts in the full work, the duration of which is approximately 40-45 minutes, depending on the use of the available improv solo space.  Horn parts are included and are optional, as the instrumental solos may be performed by piano, guitar or a vocalist. The piano part is largely notated, although some sections are written using slashes and chord changes as in the jazz idiom, so pianists performing the piece will need a solid jazz background. Bass, guitar and drum set parts are also included in the package.
