๐ง โORIGINALSโ album release 03.23.2024
NEW MUSIC
โORIGINALSโ is a long form musical work that primarily uses jazz combo instrumentation in its presentation. Itโs a work comprised of 6 movements that flow from one piece to the next: I. Finally II. Always III. Maybe IV. Infinity V. Later VI. Yesteryears. The movements appear as individual tracks on the album and there is a bonus take of VI.
PRESS QUOTE
โChristopher Burnett is a paragon of taste. His new album Originals is characterized by sprightly melodies and amiable swing. The stately jazz is ideally suited for background music at an elegant dinner party or as the center of attention in a ritzy supper club.โ

PERSONAL NOTE
โORIGINALSโ is a musical โlove letterโ to our family throughout the ages. To: Our past biological family members who we have never met because we are displaced historically by generations. To: Our biological family members of our own time and to our future biological family members whom we will never meet in person. And, to our life family members who consist of the people and kindred spirits we have encountered on this journey who have indeed become โfamily.โ

TESTIMONIALS







โHey Chris, The key is to become a competent musician and improvise like YOU, not Cannonball, not โTrane, not Bird, YOU! When you can do that youโve arrived at the essence of this music.โ

INTRODUCTION TO OUR LINKS ๐
Our BurnettMusic.BIZ portal connects you with our primary websites and the websites of our nonprofit organization programs. We have been a family since 1979 (๐Burnett Family US). We both are professional woodwind artists (๐Terri Burnett Flute and ๐Christopher Burnett Ensembles). We are both independent music education professionals (๐The Burnett School of Music). And we publish and produce our own music, recordings, lesson plans, and websites (๐Burnett Publishing Company). This portal gives access to those sites. We also web mastered and maintained the now archived websites for our mother, the artist (๐Sintha Anderson); our brother, the noted drummer (๐Richie Pratt); and our family friend, trumpeter (๐Marcus Hampton) for historic and information purposes. Visit the website and album documenting the critically acclaimed international collaboration with our great friend Dino Massa here too, titled ๐โEchoes of Europe.โ

WEBSITE CREDITS: This webpage was developed using the Blank Canvas WordPress Theme. Customizations by Christopher Burnett. Most of the professional Kansas City Area photography used in our websites and projects is by our friend Duane Hallock Photography. The other photographs are by us. We learned to produce our own websites by writing HTML code by hand back in 1997. As a small business, we found this developed skill useful and learning how to do it ourselves has also saved lots of time and money as well.
