NEWLY REMIXED & REMASTERED. Please Listen to the whole piece, my best ever. "Regeneration 2020" (from the 2022 Album, "What Was Can Still Be") is very special to me for several reasons. At this point in my musical journey of more than 50 years, I consider this piece to be my Magnum Opus. At a runtime of more than 16 minutes, it is a symphonic jazz concerto in 3 movements, each movement originally having been written as a standalone song. Mvt. I - originally called "Life Celebration," composed in 1982. Mvt. II - originally called "Melissa's Theme" and written for a short film in 2008. Mvt. III - originally called "The Baião," composed in 2001. The full orchestra intro was taken from motifs in the 3rd movement, while the ending is something very special to me. From the final acoustic piano solo in 6/4 and out, the thematic material was borrowed from my teacher, mentor, and friend, Rayburn Wright. His composition, "Regeneration – Concerto For Jazz Quartet, Rock Ensemble and Symphony Orchestra" was composed in 1972, as part of a pops concert with the Rochester Philharmonic, as a feature for Dave Brubeck, his trio, and his son's rock group, New Heavenly Blue. I wanted to arrange this short section not only as an ending for my concerto, but also as a way of finally thanking Rayburn for all I learned from him, which I never had the chance to do (he passed in 1990). The title of my piece is not only a further nod to him, but also a reference to my own current state in late 2020, as I was literally regenerating–physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. So for me, this piece literally represents the trip of a lifetime.
