This book is an attempt to capture the highlights of twenty-eight years of composing. Each of these 32 compositions is an expression, and as such -- an exposure, of a genuine part of myself which I present within the framework of jazz; my beloved art form. When I listen to this music I hear shades of my early classical and rock influences. It also brings to my mind my birth place, a small neighborhood outside of Haifa, Israel. I really hope that you will listen to these pieces come alive on my CDs All The Way To Sendai.

What a wonderful song, full of life, that sings about the joy of being alive. The words are delightful, naming plants and animals with admiration, and carried by a tune that is bubbling with energy and gratefulness. A brief middle section even includes a time when the children can make animal noises in an enchanting way. The message to love and care for our planet comes through too. Easy to medium in difficulty.

This contemporary work from Daniel Brewbaker is a jubilant shout of joy at the miracle of being alive. Based on poems by St. Thomas Aquinas and Rabia, their ideas resonate with each other across the centuries, and extend to our own. The music alternates between exhilarating elation and quiet amazement, concluding with an exuberant affirmation of the self as the central expression of the divine choir of life. From his cantata Living the Divine. Duration: 2:30.

Shout for Joy All the Earth! is a bold fantasia for the advancing concert band based on the composer's choral work of the same name. This work celebrates being alive and captures moments of intense joy and relaxed contemplation. The overall mood of this piece emphasizes the feeling that when we are overcome by joy we feel as if all of nature is celebrating with us.
