Still Crossing
Re-imagined classic rock songs in jazz. Still Crossing picks up where the
album Crossover left off. Re-imagined
classic rock songs in a jazz style. The
inspiration for Crossover comes from
my roots in Cuba, where American
music was banned. Despite this, we
could still catch the sound waves
coming across the ocean from Florida,
discovering what would later become
classic rock. This album continues
that journey, but choosing the music
was no easy task. The focus was on
the artists whose music has left a
lasting impact worldwide: Led Zepplin,
Elton John, Procol Harum, Janis Joplin,
Joni Mitchell, and Jimi Hendrix..

The idea of arranging Classic Rock songs came while teachingguitar at a school and working with kids that enjoyed Classic Rock. Iwanted to introduce them to Jazz and combining rock tunes was theperfect bridge. I began with Blackbird (Beatles). I wanted to orchestratethe song while keeping the original melody and that's what I did. Thearrangement helped them to meld the two genres together.
