about

ROGER'S MUSIC VOLUME 3

The natural beauty of Maryland and West Virginia is a deep source of inspiration for many of my originals. The tunes selected for this album are eclectic. There is jazz, blues, fiddle music, ballads, and touches of contemporary classical. The instrumentation goes from a solo piano, through various small group configurations, to a large jazz orchestra.

NOTES:

Click on a track's Info to see liner notes about the music.

Lead sheets and ensemble scores & parts for these pieces are available at Sheet Music Plus.

Each recording represents just one possibility for how the music can be performed. I encourage musicians to think of my written music as a point of departure and find their vision of it.
