ONE THING NECESSARY February 6, 2022 Andy Wasserman Livestream: Solo PIano concert, original music

This program, dedicated to the theme of "THE ONE THING NECESSARY," is episode 87 in the ongoing livestream Couch Tour performance series "The Listening Experience," which launched in June, 2020. The video presents the complete fifty-three minute concert broadcast on 2/6/22, showcasing Andy Wasserman's signature Contemporary/Modal/Infusion Jazz solo piano stylistic genre with 7 all new original compositions. The theme "One Thing Necessary" aims to bridge the gap between that which is beyond words but may be expressed in music. It seeks an answer for the question "Is there one thing necessary in life that can keep everything in balance, peace, patience, trust, love and good rhythm as we journey onward, upward and inward?" Here's the track list with time-stamp chapters to help navigate the compositions played throughout the program on a 1924 Steinway "M" grand. 00:00 INTRO TO PROGRAM THEME 02:11 Highlight 10:10 Inflow 16:56 Splendor 23:47 Indivisible 31:12 Decorum 38:52 Longanimity 44:48 Accordant 50:53 A FINAL WORD ---- Listen to, and FOLLOW Andy Wasserman's albums streaming on SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4M2vRrXLVxIynlkfQzAHVj ---- TRACK and FOLLOW Andy's weekly Couch Tour livestream events and concerts at: https://www.bandsintown.com/a/6037131-andy-wasserman https://www.songkick.com/artists/10140563-andy-wasserman https://newark.jazznearyou.com/calendar.php?musician=18109 ---- Connect with all Andy Wasserman's online musical artistry content at LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/awlinks ---- Andy Wasserman is one of only a few people certified directly by legendary composer, theoretician, educator and orchestra leader George Russell to teach the Lydian Chromatic Concept of Tonal Organization - the art and science of Tonal Gravity. Russell is internationally recognized as one of the most significant, influential and seminal innovators of the 20th century, and his Lydian Chromatic Concept is viewed by many in the worlds of Jazz, contemporary classical and popular music as the most important theoretical language to emerge from the Jazz cultural legacy. Maestro Russell was also Andy’s mentor in composition while he studied at Boston's New England Conservatory of Music. ---- Learn more about taking interactive private one-on-one ONLINE LESSON in real-time with Andy: https://andywasserman.com/private-lessons/realtime-online-lessons ---- VIEW Andy's ongoing 'Couch Tour' live stream weekly 'LISTENING EXPERIENCE' SUNDAY EVENING JAZZ JAM concerts page live, for free (no log in, tickets or registration needed) at official website: https://andywasserman.com/piano/live-stream-concerts Also available on: ROKU TV - "PREVIOUS PERFORMANCES" archive video-on-demand 24/7 playlist CHANNEL: https://channelstore.roku.com/details/4ebed1c3e6d4dc848cf2d0aba6173269/andy-wassermans-previous-performances watch THE SUNDAY EVENING WEEKLY LIVE BROADCAST program every Sunday @ 7pm ET on Andy's Live Stream ROKU CHANNEL: https://channelstore.roku.com/details/7eb35c6cf9cbc28add056c9aa2fd9cc7/andy-wassermans-the-listening-experience AMAZON FIRE TV APP - TO WATCH PREVIOUS CONCERTS ARCHIVE FREE 24/7: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B093ZD961Y/ref= sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=andy+wasserman&qid=1620499534&s=mobile-apps&sr=1-1 January 2021 Review in the NEW YORK CITY JAZZ RECORD MAGAZINE NY@Night Column, solo piano concert (excerpt): “Wasserman produced forays into the bright, the glimmering, the burning, the clouded-over, icy and distant, with use of falling phrases over shifting, widely gripped harmonies as well as blues-drenched, ringing major sevenths, ninths and elevenths…conjured thoughts of Bill Evans and Herbie Hancock. While feelings of unity can be subjective, the rolling complexities in Wasserman’s works are beautifully, almost mystically woven together.” --------------------------------- Andy Wasserman's solo piano "Infusion Jazz" style fuses spontaneity, expressive nuance and subtlety, harmonic intimacy, rhythmic intricacy, and an eloquent spectrum of polished dynamic gradation. The development of Andy’s signature style and improvisational approach was lovingly guided through a 30 year long relationship with his mentor, legendary piano virtuoso Dwike Mitchell. Andy’s solo piano work for Production Music Libraries as composer, arranger and instrumentalist distributed worldwide have appeared on NBC, CBS & ABC, as well as Cable stations that include A & E, Lifetime , History Channel, Travel Channel, TBS, Nickelodeon, Turner Network, The Learning Channel. Wasserman has released 22 CDs, many currently available at Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, iHeart Radio, Pandora, Bandcamp and YouTube Music. His latest album is entitled "Exuberance." #SoloPiano, #LydianChromaticConcept, #InfusionJazzPiano, #holisticmusichealing, #andywasserman, #onethingnecessary, #tonalgravity, #ProfusionJazz, #PanfusionJazz
