Likeness to Lily

Elegant and epic, realist and romantic, foreign and familiar – Likeness to Lily is a rare species of modern music, distinctive for deluxe storytelling and compositional savoir‐faire. Time‐honored tales of life and love find state‐of‐the‐art expression in the classical melody of founder Susan Oetgen’s voice and the jazz influenced harmonies and rhythms of pianist Tony Melone.

“Likeness to Lily shows style, taste, and in the lyrics a delicately honed view of the human condition.” – Randall Woolf, Composer‐in‐Residence, Brooklyn Philharmonic, Brooklyn, NY

Jordan McLean's Piano Music & Song Trio The trumpet, cello and piano based group will feature McLean's orchestrations of the elegantly dissonant music of Catalonia's Frederico Mompou. Jordan lends his unique performance style to Antibalas, Sway Machinery and TV on the Radio and is co-arranger for the upcoming FELA! on Broadway. Featuring the young and gifted pianist Derin Oge and cellist Anneke Schaul-Yoder.
