O’s Notes: Lisa B (Bernstein) is singing, chanting & reciting spoken word, and she’s doing it in style with minimalist jazzy accompaniment behind her. Get ready for a unique, scintillating performance. There’s a stirring rendition and adaptation of the Lord’s Prayer on ‘Lisa’s Lord’s Prayers‘. Bernstein delivers an exceptional oratory experience sweet with jazz passion and a lot of style. They are noteworthy performances from Jeff Marrs (d) on ‘With Him and Max’s Solo‘, Marcus Shelby (b) on ‘Bassist, Almost Alone‘, and Scott Looney (p) on ‘I Am an Orchestra‘. Lisa took a risk with“Reverberant: Poems & Music“and it was well worth it!
