The Living Water
Living, breathing,
exuding, life, love and music. Powerfully moving our emotional spirits,
Dwight Trible is the almighty conductor that emanates spiritually
soulful truths into our beings through his music. This new CD, “The
Living Water” is a collection of outstanding pieces of music. Each just
as emotionally moving as the next. The inspiration behind the music
comes from versions of John Coltrane’s “Africa” with lyrics by Abbey
Lincoln , Nina Simone’s version of “Wild as
the Wind” and other incredible compositions. It is not a CD of Gershwin
tunes or tunes from the American Songbook. These are pieces that are
moving and have feeling. Add that Dwight Trible sound and you end up
with an outstanding selection of inspired music.
The World Stage was
PACKED for the release of this long awaited CD! For 2 full sets, Dwight
and his awesome host of comrades brought you in peacefully and sent you
out singin’ and feelin’ the spirit! The audience is moved with every
scream, shout and sound of joy coming from the bandstand. The finest
musicians in Los Angeles,
John Rangel, Trevor Ware, Daniel Berjarano, Joshua Speigleman, and the
amazing Derf Reklaw were holdin’ all of the love together. A fine night
in Lemeirt Park
where music thrived and was in the air.
So many supporters came out to
support this awesome band. These are the people who talked on the
street after the show, getting to know one another. A sense of
community, jazz community, just like back in the day. A modern day 52nd street, The World Stage as well as the other venues on the block are making Lemeirt Park a dominant mainstay for music, community, the arts, conversations and jazz, jazz, jazzzzzzzz!
Speaking of the arts,
Kamal Dauud is the outstanding poet with such a passion for words and
expressing them in such a way that catches you up in a whirlwind of
power, a vernacular tornado! Buy it, support it, listen to it, breathe
it, become it, seach for it, tap into the source and go straight to “
The Living Water”!!!!!
