"Setting Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet to modern jazz would no doubt present a challenge to anyone, and Sherry rises to the occasion. The compositions themselves are imaginative yet reverent."
Bio / Background
Gripping vocals, moving lyrics and complex yet accessible songs are brought to life by nationally-known jazz artists at their best. The result: Music of substance that is easy to hear –- ECHOES OF THE PROPHET. "A major statement that borrows from a literary master and takes his words and us all to another level.” -- S.D. Feeney, UpBeat Magazine
Over the course of a decade double-bassist and composer Sam Sherry crafted a suite of songs drawn from Kahlil Gibran's touchstone work, THE PROPHET. Known and loved by millions, Gibran's book became an icon around the globe for its reminders of the spiritual aspects of everyday life. Sherry's music -– endorsed by the Gibran National Trust of Lebanon -– takes up the monumental challenge of bringing Gibran's writing forward to the state of acoustic jazz today.
As Sherry puts it, “These are great musicians who will thrill you whenever they play.
