Album description

Some jazz from modern times, some stories from another world.

This is my new album, La vie sous la mer: eight instrumentals, which tell eight interconnected stories. The songs can be found on Jamendo, but the stories can be read in the [free] companion book:

La vie sous la mer:
the Songs, the Stories
[pdf, 2.0 Mb]

(At present, the only version is in English; I apologize to my French-speaking friends for that.)

All of the tracks were composed, performed, and recorded by Bruce H. McCosar. If you would like to learn more, check the following websites: Wordpress, Dandelife, and Myspace.

Bruce, once again you inspire me and amaze me with this collection of beautiful sounds. The variety of this music draws you in and keeps you listening. From the more upbeat funkier/rockier tunes such as The Night Jenny Saved The Sailors to the more contemporary improvised piano led jazz of la vie sous la mer, there really is a range of sounds and emotions convenyed by the music to keep one interested. I have always loved your bass playing but see some extra angles and growth in your keyboard and drum playing on this album, backed up ably with some nice guitar flourishes. As always, thoughful arrangements and care and attention to the recording process mean that the album has a very clear and clean sounding tone which is very pleasant. A melting pot of aural delight and highly recommended !

I pleasure to listen to. You can float away with your thoughts to this album. Easy, not overbearing with sharp sound, but a cool melodic movement thru tranquility.

For me the music makes me feel: longing, loss, joy, hope,sadness, warmth. There is questioning of one's place in the world and choices made,(read the background behind the music). "The night Jenny saved the sailors" and "It's always raining somewhere" are my favorites, simply put they speak to me.
