Don’t get me wrong; I can’t stand the orange face SOB – let me rephrase: sub-human. But at this point, nothing done because he’s become too powerful. (Cur the “emperors theme” from Star Wars because this is where everything is headed.)

YouTube video by Tony SingingEagle, Jazz Composer–Recording Artist Latin Jazz Lights Up the Guatemalan Skies in "Zacapa" by ASCAP composer Tony SingingEagle

Zacapa is one of my personal favorites. I wrote the tune back in 1972, but then arranged it for large studio orchestra a few years ago. It’s a lovely slow Latin piece that, hopefully, will make you think of that first love you had.

Was thinking of doing a video series (YouTube & shared here) on my process for music production. All the steps from concept, composition, orchestration through the recording mixing and mastering. All old school stuff (not many of us still around these days). Thoughts? Let me know.

YouTube video by Tony SingingEagle, Jazz Composer–Recording Artist A Tribute to Jazz Legend Chick Corea: "Tones For Joan's Bones" Arranged by Tony SingingEagle, ASCAP

Here's an arrangement I did of Chick Corea's 1966 tune, "Tones For Joan's Bones." This is the only arrangement I've released; the rest of my material are original compositions. This chart features a lot of ensemble writing, as well as solo piano.

My latest album was a real departure. I scaled everything back from big band & large orchestra arrangements and rewrote 10 of my compositions for 3 horns & 4 rhythm. Plus, I got to record with my arranging student, Johhny Panfili, a 20-year-old, up-and-coming composer/pianist.

That tune was always one of my favorites. The original chart was more of a pop ballad but when laying out the second album, I wanted to do something totally different with the arrangement. So I opted for a 1950s Afro Cuban feel. Really appreciate you listening and commenting, Jake.

If you need to "enable external media" it just allows the YouTube video (or media from another site) to play here on BlueSky. Perfectly safe.

YouTube video by Tony SingingEagle, Jazz Composer–Recording Artist The Jazz Waltz is Back in Style in "Purplesque" by ASCAP composer Tony SingingEagle

Good morning #jazzlovers. Here's a composition of mine from my 2nd album, "Unfinished Business," guaranteed to brighten your day and lift your spirits.
Here's "Purplesque."

I would have thought that most people with a modicum of intelligence would know this. Apparently not.

I do not celebrate this day; it is a painful reminder of several massacres that took place during that period. This day was declared a holiday with a feast in celebration of those massacres in 1639. But for those of you who do celebrate what you are thankful for, I hope this is a good day for you.

Hope I'm not a vanishing breed. I compose music at the piano, with pencil & score paper (engrave later). Then arrange & orchestrate for the style I'm writing, record each instrument separately, mix and master to professional specs. All because I believe quality is not a thing of the past.

We have to hold on to the one thing they want to take from us: hope. Because when all I said and done, resistance (or even rebellions) are built on hope. And the way to do it: not by fighting what we hate, but by saving what we love.
Héčhetu weló. 

You are not alone. As a native (Lakota), all across Indian Country I’m hearing the same thing. And I am telling my people one thing over and over again: time to collectively stand together and say the one thing the OrangeOne hates: “no more.” Thank you for sharing this, @jakesmolowe.

Blocked? Must have been truly interesting.

I wanted to put onto one album my own personal favorites, rather than issue a "Best Of" compilation. The result was "One More Once." It was also the perfect opportunity to remix and remaster three 3 tracks I was not happy with off the first album, especially my 3rd concerto, "Regeneration 2020."

@daveedwardspiano.bsky.social thanks for sharing your beautiful music.

Shorter. Oh yeah!

Had to share this beautiful, pensive piece by Dave Edwards. He definitely has a new fan of his composing/playing.

I love Jack and his impeccable drumming on some of the early CTI albums from Creed Taylor, especially Freddie Hubbard.

Let me be clear about my purpose. I can’t stand the orange-faced idiot trying to destroy this country, but I am not a political person. I am Lakota, a Native to Turtle Island (North/Central/South America) and only want to protect Her. I also want to share my music with those who love jazz.

My opera magna (3 greatest works), Jazz Concerto 1, 2, & 3. Each is in 3 movements, composed for 70-piece studio orchestra. Lots of jazz solos in various sub-genres, full of positive energy. Listen to them as singles or on my first 3 albums on all major streaming services.

"Live!" is my 4th album. All tracks were recorded live in concert and in the studio (no VST productions). It was released on 2 Feb 2024 and features live versions of 3 pieces from earlier albums, as well as 4 previously unreleased tracks.
Available on Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp, YouTube Music.

This guy kicks arse as a composer and performer. And that’s only after listening to this one piece. Can’t wait to hear more of his charts.
