Jason Seizer - Time Being

Jason Seizer -||- Time Being – [Pirouet Records, 2008]

He’s a quiet one. Someone who doesn’t make much to do about nothing. Someone who would rather let his beautiful, subtly placed tone do the talking. Displaying his musical muscles and partaking in verbose self-aggrandizement is not his style. What Jason Seizer has to say he says through his music, and what he cherishes most in this music is a highly polished economy; he walks away from musical directions that are heading towards excess. These virtues are also imprinted on “Time Being”. With his new CD, the Pirouet label’s artistic director hands out his latest personal musical calling card. What you will find on it, (along with original compositions with terse one or two word titles) is music that concerns itself with substance and finely-sculpted tonal textures that will make you sit up and listen, and want to listen to again.

Shu Mei - Jazz Canvas - Asian Memories

Shu Mei -||- Jazz Canvas – Asian Memories – [Artistes International, 2010]

Shu Mei’s rising star shows no sign of letting up. Since graduating from the prestigious New England Conservatory of Music, she has embarked on a journey that transcends diverse music genres – classical, pop, ethnic, fusion, jazz and Latin. As a much sought-after soloist and ensemble musician, Shu Mei’s energetic performances have won her kudos from both the classical and non-classical world.

Shu Mei has emerged as the violinist of choice for many regional and local artistes. In 2005, she has had the opportunity to perform as a soloist to celebrate bilateral Singapore-Malaysia ties in front of 30,000 people at the Penang Indoor Stadium. She has also been invited to perform with renowned jazz diva Marina Xavier at the Jakarta Jazz Festival and Penang Jazz Festival. Her association as a member of the ethnic fusion group Hybrid, swing group Goodfellas and latin-pop group San Nikkis provided the experience to expand and develop her range of musical instincts.
