notes
On the first CD under his own name, John Becker presents a lyrical and heartfelt collection of unique jazz music.
John is a talented composer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer who performed all of the sounds on this recording through a process called overdubbing.
Most of the music was composed by him, and include him singing and playing piano, vibraphone, drum set, melodica,and synthesizer.
John is active performing in Madison, Wisconsin, and throughout the midwest with such jazz musicians as Gerri Dimaggio and Marilyn Fisher.
He is also a frequent performer with the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra and the Madison Symphony.
During his career, John has performed with such well-known artists as Eddie Daniels, the "Whad'ya Know" trio, and conductors Andre Previn and Michael Tilson Thomas.
John can be also heard on numerous other CDs, including Gerri Dimaggio's recent release, "In Summer." Though primarily a jazz project, John's Christianity is represented in his version of Amazing Grace and other songs on the CD.
Enjoy!

Great CD
author: John StebbeJohn Becker's CD is sophistated and enjoyable. I especially enjoy the Bill Evans influences on his piano playing. His is an immense talent.
Really Great Jazz played by a very talented musician!
author: Susan ListonJohn Becker is an amazing talent. This cd has a great sound and feel. Not only does he play all the instruments, he sings as well. When listening to John's CD you can hear influences of Bill Evans, Chet Baker, as well as John's own feel and sound. Check it out. It grooves.
