This recording contains six jazz arrangements of some of my favorite classic songs and standards. From Joni Mitchell's " Both Sides Now " to a solo piano version of the timeless " Over The Rainbow ". I love melodies that are bursting with lyricism and harmonic textures that add to the emotion of the song. There are four original instrumentals, including " Influence ", which features horns, in a tribute to the Blue Note Records music of the late 50s/60s, while " Arabesque " and " " lean towards classical piano, with influences such as Satie and Chopin. I included my favorite jazz singer Billie Holiday's classic " Lover Man ", a story of vulnerable, intimate expression, also heard in the contemporary Carole King's " Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow ". All songs were arranged by Kathleen Gorman.
