Jane Roman Pitt - I Forgot About the Stars (2019)

Songs are the way we humans communicate best it’s a basic instinct. All through history songs have been sung to deliver the message of devotion to a higher power, of love and longing, of nurturing and comfort, of heartbreak and loss, of joy and celebration all giving voice to what just can’t be expressed with words alone or instruments alone.

“I Forgot About the Stars” came from a Fourth of July party in the country, lying back watching the fireworks. I became aware that the stars were rivaling the fireworks for my attention, and realized all over again just how many there were. Award winning jazz pianist Rick Roe co-arranged and played on this piece and many on the CD.
