Javier Nero - Freedom [CD]

The album FREEDOM is a collection of compositions written during various times of my career. The title track "Freedom" was composed just days after graduating from the Juilliard School and blends elements of Folk, Americana, and Patriotic music to convey a sense of joy, excitement, and hope for the future. Many of the other compositions on the album draw from early childhood influences including Motown, Hip-Hop, Funk, 70's Jazz, and the wind ensemble music I was first exposed to when I began playing the trombone in the 6th grade.
