PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN
'What Touches the Soul' is Vernon's seventh release with Kangaroo Rain Music, Inc./KRMjazz. His preceding album, 'Simple Pleasures,' is also available here on CD Baby. 'What Touches the Soul' features a mix of Brazilian, Latin, classic and contemporary jazz. Vernon comments, 'In writing this music, I kept this thought in mind. If two of my most admired composers, Dave Grusin and Antonio Carlos Jobim, had been able to sit down on a Sunday afternoon and collaborate on some material, what might it have sounded like - Grusin, who so aptly carries on the Mancini tradition with his wonderful soundtracks, bright tones and syncopation, and Jobim, with his soft, emotional chord phrasings, melodic lines and soothing rhythms. I hope you find this album a pleasant melding of three kindred spirits. Music that touches your soul.' Vernon is affiliated with BMI as a writer and publisher. He is a voting member of NARAS (The Grammys) and has served on the judging panel for their CD packaging/presentation awards. For 10 years he hosted regular jazz critiques for the Georgia Music Industry Association. He has scored works for television. His compositions have won multiple awards, including Billboard's International Songwriters competition. Vernon has been a graphic artist/illustrator for over 35 years and has won numerous awards for his art as well as his music. What others are saying .
