Gigging and Recording Modern Jazz Band Looking for Upbeat Keyboardist
by Allan Ambrochowicz 04 Feb '18

04 Feb '18

Experienced and enthusiastic keyboardist / pianist needed for classic and modern jazz / pop group. The player should be capable of, and interested in, both playing out with an experienced band (currently standard and modern smooth jazz), while preparing to record new material. I'm really looking for someone younger (24-35) with an upbeat attitude and contemporary sound, who is looking to invest themselves in the project for awhile. As far as skill level is concerned, you should be able to play songs fairly easily from a Jazz Fake book, so a moderate ability to read charts is required. Influences can include RnB, funk, electronica, and groovier pop, as the position is intended to help the group be accessible and modern; without being too immature. Working with someone is as much about personality and chemistry as it about skill, so free thinkers are welcome. Please contact Allan at 440-444-9657, or at Lodrezzon(a)hotmail.com.

Review of "Merrily We Roll Along" at Lakeland Civic Theatre
by Bob Abelman 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

Lakeland Civic Theatre’s ‘Merrily’ rolls along Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics Martin Friedman, the director of the Lakeland Civic Theatre, is a sucker for Sondheim. He has not only staged the composer/lyricist’s most popular works – including “Sunday in the Park with George,” “Sweeney Todd” and “Into the Woods” – but he’s also mounted “Anyone Can Whistle,” one of Sondheim’s earliest and most commercially unsuccessful musicals. So it was only a matter of time that Friedman would return to a personal favorite, the Stephen Sondheim-George Furth musical “Merrily We Roll Along,” which lasted on Broadway for 16 performances in 1981 despite possessing many of Sondheim’s greatest songs and one of his most complex scores.
