Marc Adler & Vic Stevens - All in a Day

Picture
All in a Day…a musical journey
A lot can happen in a day and this collection of musical works reflects many such days of creative endeavors over the course of time that Vic Stevens and I have known each other. This recording is a collaboration between us and the selections were recorded and mixed at Vic’s studio in New Jersey.
They have the unique honor of being the last project done there before his move to North Carolina. Not only is Vic an accomplished drummer, percussionist and composer but he is a meticulous and sensitive studio engineer who is patient with the musicians in his studio and very knowledgeable about recording techniques - essential qualities for successful recordings. We all enjoyed recording these tunes at Giant Steps Recording and wish him continued success in North Carolina. Two of the selections involve a string trio and we would like to thank the ‘cellist, Tony Pirollo not only for his beautifully playing but for finding the two other string players to round out the trio - Susan Aquilla (viola) and Robert Vieira (violin). They were fun to work with and interpreted the music brilliantly - some of which was quite challenging! Of course, none of this would be possible without the creative contributions of Jason Long (piano); Andy Lalasis (bass) and Sandy Eldred (bass). All in a Day is a fitting tribute to a lasting musical friendship and it is dedicated to all of our family and friends. Recorded and mixed at Giant Steps Recording, Winslow, NJ. Artwork and Design by Marlene D’Orazio Adler.
