Details:
hi,my name is Jake Lentz,originator of The Beautiful Earth
Jazz Band which began several years back when I had a working band at one of the top resorts in the Catskill Mts.
in upstate NY. I was studying with John Carisi at the time
and thru much encouragement from him I wrote some original
tunes which I recorded at Rudy Van Gelder Studios and then
went on to form a working band,BEJB. The players on this
''Best of''CD are of some of the best in the business including:tenor sax, Arnie Krakowsky, David Earle Johnson on
conga dr,Lanny Fields on bass and Carl Deitz on drs.
You can tell we all enjoyed playing this music by giving it a listen!!
Some of you may be interested in my background and where I''m
from.I was born in Minnesota [New Ulm]worked in polka bands
in my teens,studied in Hollywood,Ca.,worked with J Dorsey,
Billy May,Glenn Miller, Woody Herman big bands plus a few
more. I was assistant conductor, pianist and arranger for
The National Ice Capades. I studied composition with
John Carisi and Meyer Kupferman. I would love to hear from
anybody out there to talk music,arranging,composition,anything.I love music!!
