November News! Trio at the Kitano and more.

10/31/2017

Hi everyone and happy November! This coming month is bringing a couple of very exciting performances, as well as a new recording project with one of my favorite bands, Ben Sutin's Klazz-Ma-Tazz. Hope to see you at one of the following concerts:

Ben Rosenblum Trio Returns to the Kitano (Wendesday, November 1st):

This Wednesday, November 1st (sets at 8pm and 10pm), I'll be bringing my trio back to one of my favorite venues, The Kitano in Midtown Manhattan. This show is particularly special because I will be joined by two of my best musical friends, Ben Rubens on bass and Ben Zweig on drums. The Bens and I have been playing together as a trio for almost seven years now, and it's always a joy to play with them. For more info, visit http://www.kitano.com/Jazz-Schedule.

Deborah Davis/Ben Rosenblum Duo at the 1867 Sanctuary in Ewing, New Jersey (Friday, November 10th):

On Friday, November 10th at 8pm, the great jazz vocalist Deborah Davis and I will perform at the beautiful 1867 Sanctuary in Ewing, NJ. This is my second performance at the 1867 Sanctuary after my solo piano concert here in July. I love what they do here, and I'm very happy to be returning for an intimate show with one of my favorite singers.

Other News:

On November 4th and 5th, I will be at the great Systems Two Recording Studios to record with Ben Sutin's Klazz-Ma-Tazz! This is the second CD

we will record as a group, and it's going to be a great time. In case you don't know anything about this group, you can learn more us at http://www.bensutinmusic.com/klazz-ma-tazz. I will also be continuing my weekly Thursday residency with jazz giant Curtis Lundy at Orama in Edgewater, NJ (we are off this coming Thursday, but we will be returning on Thursday, November 9th). On Tuesday, November 7th, I'll be at Minton's with drummer JC Polo's Latin Jazz project, and I'll be making a couple appearances with singer Katini Yamaoka and guitarist Michael Sheridan. As always, you can check my schedule at https://www.benrosenblummusic.com/schedule.html for the most up-to-date information about upcoming performances.

Thanks for your continuing support, and all the best!

Music is the only thing that can soothe my soul right now. For this reason alone, I choose to listen only to praises and people chanting the holy names. It never really let us down before. If I am undergoing a lot of stress as of the moment, all I need to do is try my best to will myself to feel happy and contented just being able to listen to something that can sound really positive. I was told before, any venture that does not have the Lord as the top most reason for doing so, is destined to a great failure and disappointment. I guess this includes the kind of music we make and listen to.
