Geoff Alpert is
truly one of the most remarkable musicians in the smooth jazz scene today. He took a many year hiatus from music to be
an amazing father and husband and found his way back after the untimely death
of his wife. His music gained a deep
emotional tone and has culminated with his debut album, “Open Your Heart.” It is a beautiful collection of songs that
highlights tones of smooth jazz, Latin,
R&B, funk and even hints of pop. The
genre fusion creates a highly accessible work that anybody can appreciate.
It also
highlights the often-overlooked trombone.
It’s great to see the smooth jazz trombone in the foreground and
exciting to hear that solo lines Alpert has written. One highlight of the album is the song
“Thinking About You,” which is a musical memento dedicated to his departed
mother and wife. It is well worth your
time to take a listen.
Be sure to keep
up with Geoff on Facebook, Twitter, Reverbnation and his official website www.GeoffAlpert.com for any updates.
