Catalina Concert Report
Catalina Concert Report
I went to Catalina Bar & Grill which located at Sunset Blvd, Hollywood to see a Jazz concert, featuring Kevin O’Neal and Patrice Quinn, along with Oscar Hernandez, Sid Jacobs and Aaron Serfaty on Thursday, Mar 06, 2014. My roommate and me were lost and once and had a hard time trying to locate Catalina but fortunately we made it on time anyway. According to our professor the club is a nice place and indeed I have to admit that after I taste the food there. We finished our delicious dinner and wait for the concert to begin.
The performance started at about nine o’clock. On that night professor O’Neal was doing a lot of jobs including a bass guitar player, singer, and the composer of this concert. He received rounds of applause as soon as he stood on the stage. There was twelve pieces of melody in this brilliant performance. The first song was “Black Butterfly,” and of course the composer is professor Kevin O’Neal who also started with a bass solo, and later on, piano and drum with a fast beat changed the slow bass beat, and then all the three instrument joined together. I think this piece of music was showing the beautiful black butterfly’s journey of life. It made me wonder the taste of nature and the freedom in the sky.
The following pieces are “The way you look tonight,” which composed by Jerome Kers and Lyric by Dorothy Fields, “They Can’t Take That Away From Me” by Gershwin&Gershwin, and “Now Or Never” with the composer Holiday, C.R. Lewis. These three melody’s beat was no real difference with the first song, but those three melodies were in a similar theme, which was about the beautiful sad/ romantic love. The singer Patrice Quinn’s singing was really catching to my ear that was really relax and unique. Her voice fully filled this beautiful place until the melody ended.
The rests of the songs, “Pannonica”, “Ceora”, “There For You”, “Ball & Chain”, “California Soul”, “Save A Thought For Me” and the last piece “Expectation” are
