Life in the TreesToward the Center of The Night 1989 via Windham Hill Records
A little bit of this and that, with an emphasis on music that brightens the day and lifts your spirits. You'll hear new music, local music, world beat, and plenty of folk, rock, blues, and jazz.

The Movement Revisited: A Musical Portrait of Four Icons -- inspired by the written words and speeches of Rosa Parks, Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King Jr., and President Barack Obama. Marshaling his ever-sharpening skills as a composer, arranger, conductor, musician and lyricist, Christian McBride has created a historically and culturally illuminating five-part suite for an 18-piece big band, chorus and narrators that places the motivating forces as well as the goals of the Civil Rights Movement within a powerfully relevant artistic context. It is a one-from-the-heart project McBride was, apparently, destined to undertake. This recording of The Movement Revisited marks the addition of a fifth movement, “Apotheosis,†which acknowledges the election of Barack Obama as the first African American President of the United States.
