L’AMORE È POESIA (“love is poetry”) is a song cycle for soprano and orchestra, built around four vocalises and an orchestral interlude. The compositions feature a wordless soprano and are written in a very lush romantic style with a touch of Hollywood from the golden era of the late 30's and 40's.
This is the world premiere recording of the complete work. Full track list:
CANZONETTA FOR SOPRANO AND ORCHESTRA
POESIA PER UNA SOGNATRICE
INTERMEZZO FOR ORCHESTRA

TETHER
(USA | GT 2015) - composer
writer/director: Eve Symington
producer: Charly Feldman
When Nelli, a quirky, tenacious Mayan girl finds her pregnant sister on the verge of death, she sets out on a journey to save her only family and her future.
Hers is a world of tin-roofed houses with dirt floors, of women holding together families with many children and
often not enough food. Over the course of this story, Nelli comes to realize that family and responsibility are intertwined with personal ambition, and that though the path she walks
may not be the one she has dreamed of, it will be bold and brave. |

RUMORS IN THE ETHER
(USA 2014) - remixing and mastering engineer
Artist: Corey Stevens
Label: Blue Zen Music
release date: 10/25/2014

Corey Stevens continues to take his fans on a musical journey. Each new album is different enough to offer up something new and yet stays within the bounds of what his core fans may expect.
His new album, RUMORS IN THE ETHER, tackles current issues in an artful way that doesn't take sides, but makes you wonder where the world is heading, and importantly not alienating the listener.
Blues based and fused with straight ahead rock, this is music that is guitar driven with support from Hammond organ and piano and harkens back to the sixties in both sounds and lyrical themes.
