JAZZ по-русскиJustin Lee Schultz • Gruv Kid®️2020 #smoothjazz🎹Justin Lee Schultz родился в этом столетии, ему сейчас 13, дебютный альбом называется Gruv Kid - это название и титульная композиция хорошо представляет его, как пианиста, композитора и вокалиста умеющего делать грув.
🎹Среди гостей есть солидные джазмены: пианист Bob James, гитарист-певец Jonathan Butler, флейтист Najee, барабанщик Harvey Mason, клавишник-гитарист Jeff Lorber и гитарист Paul Jackson Jr., но главную роль играет его отец Julius Schultz на басу и 16-летняя сестра Jamie-Leigh на барабанах. Отец и сын также являются композиторами 8 оригиналов.
🎹Бог благословил меня музыкальным даром, но мой отец воспитывает и лелеет меня! Музыка приносит мне радость, потому что я могу самовыражаться и проявлять творческий подход, когда импровизирую, - говорит вундеркинд.
🎹Когда Джастину было 5 лет, я позвал его и Джейми на сцену сыграть на одном из моих концертов. Именно тогда они начали проявлять интерес и показывать потенциал, и я понял, что у меня в руках что-то особенное, что надо развивать.
