Sadly, I can count the times I’ve been to a jazz club on one hand. But after seeing John’s trio tear it up Monday night at Small’s, I realize I really need to get out more often.

They played a GOOD set.

I truly hope I never EVER hear someone look at one of these and say “hey, they built a real version of that thing in iTunes!”

Jon Pratt is an amazing composer who has created beautiful music for my last two short films. His coolness also extends into the insect kingdom, where he has a huge grasshopper following.

One of my favorite things about NYC is that you can never know it all; what you don’t know will always be immense. Kinda like life itself.This was my first time to Dicapo and I have to say it was pretty cool. I’d never heard contemporary opera before nor did I know opera could be performed in small venues. Check it out if you get a chance.
