Hidden Treasures: Arie Brown, gold from the Chicago Jazz scene

Not only is it a beautiful Sunday morning but it's the Sunday at which Beirut Marathon kicked of. After a lovely night of listening to internal security forces yelling at the top of their lungs for people to move their cars, I thought you (all of you in Beirut, specially in Hamra) and I deserve a more jazzy tune this mourning. So if any of you Jazz lovers woke up late or early, feeling active or lazy, this one is for you...

Not many Jazz fans know about Ari, so allow me to introduce  you to one of the most exciting hidden treasures of Jazz out there. Known for his versatility, Ari is a composer and arranger, with the saxophone as his main instrument, and the piano as an occasional flavor. His music awakens the soul and turns it human with all the emotional ups and downs of the human condition. 

Hope you enjoy his performance on the Soprano Saxophone in the video below. For more about Ari Brown, you can click here and here
