    Inspiration from the Rain
    Heartache, questions, Love and defeat, someone once said there wouldn't be art without the obstacles. Inspiration From the Rain narrates the story of Jennifer's life that has transformed over the years, from moving from a small town in Sweden, to trying to make it in the big city. Heart felt, melodic, transparent and true. It paints a picture of the obstacles, the questions, and the love that has defined her. A story set to inspire others to go for what they dream of. It's the only thing that makes you truly happy. Music is a healing tool. Not everyone expresses how they feel, and a lot of people listen to music as an outlet. The message conveyed is, everyone goes through pain, but do not let that stop you from being true to who you are, and to go for what you believe in. • Writing Credits All Songs Written by Newberry except track 3 Newberry/Clayton, 4 and 12 Newberry/Jordan, 5, 10, 13 Newberry/Terrell, 14 Newberry/Fant • Copyright Credits © 2011 JMN PUBLISHING, All rights reserved • Publishing Credits All Songs Published By JMN PUBLISHING (ASCAP) • Credits Executive Producer JENNIFER NEWBERRY All Songs Produced/Mixed/Engineered By: Dylan Fant except track 3 Produced By NoDressCode (Nicholas Clayton), 3 & 12 Mixed & Engineered By Elizabeth Gallardo Mixing, 4 William Jordan, 12 Produced By William Jordan Recorded At: All Songs Recorded @ 1 Shot Studio in Woodinville, WA except track 3 Vocals Recorded @ Platinum Reign in Tacoma, WA & Music @ Cloud 9 Music Group in Orlando, FL, 4 & 12 @ Platinum Reign Tacoma, WA All Vocals and Lyrics arranged and created by Newberry All Instruments arranged by Dylan Fant except track 3 Nicholas Clayton, 4 & 12 William Jordan & Jennifer Newberry Keys by Newberry on Track 6 & 11 Acoustic Guitar By TL Terrell on Track 5 Electric Guitar By Kent Beatty on Track 12 Mastered by: Elizabeth Gallardo Art Direction By: Jennifer Newberry, Jose Luis Smith, Mike Manzano & Kaywood Hopkins Photo Taken By: Gabriel Choy Gobophotography.com Jennifernewberry.com, Twitter.com/JenNewberry, Facebook.com/JenniferNewberryMusic, Myspace.com/jennifernewberry, reverbnation.com/jennifernewberrymusic, jennifernewberrymusic.blogspot.com.

    Chimes of the Homeland
    KONSTANTIN PETROSSIAN Composer, pianist and conductor Konstantin Petrossian graduated from the R.Melikian Music College and Komitas State Conservatory of Yerevan, Armenia. Petrossian lectured on and taught harmony, theory, and chorale arrangement at R.Melikian Music College. Many years he was also Conductor of the Armenian TV/Radio Orchestra, and Director of the Armenian Music Center. K. Petrossian's works include symphonic, chorales, chamber music, music for movies and theaters. He has given numerous performances in many countries. K.Petrossian is a member of the following organizations: Union Composers of Armenia, ASCAP, Armenian Musical Assembly. K.Petrossian serves as Cultural and Music Director of Sts. Sahag and Mesrob Armenian Church in Providence, and hi also been the Artistic Director and Conductor of the Armenian Chorale of Rhode Island, and Armenian Chorale of Greater Worcester (MA). He also serves as the President and Artistic Director of the Armenian Music Festival of Rhode Island, Inc. ------ Konstantin Petrossian belongs to the generation of Armenian composers whose bright personalities and mastery epitomize contemporary Armenian music. Although the scores on this CD were composed relatively recently, many of them have already been widely acclaimed. Of particular interest, alongside the vocal and instrumental compositions, is the Hayrenee Ghoghanjner (Chimes of the Homeland) choral cycle of exquisite arrangements of Armenian songs that combine the traditional style created by greater armenian composer Komitas and the contemporary creative approach. While the Chimes of the Homeland cycle in itself provides a worthy and remarkable contribution to the choral art, likewise the brilliant work of the Komitas Chamber Choir directed by Hovhannes Mirzoyan (Yerevan State Conservatory of Music) and their fruitful cooperation with the composer have contributed to this marvelous musical accomplishment. By Edward Mirzoyan, Composer ------ Choral cycle "Hayrenee Ghoghanjner"(Chimes of the Homeland) by Konstantin Petrossian consists of ten choral arrangements of folk songs, representing various genres and themes. 1.2.3. The first three out of the assortment represent love poetry. Aysor Oorbat Piter (Today Is Friday ) is full of sadness caused by the separation of two loving hearts, Berditsu Ashetsee (I Looked From the Cave) tells a story of intense longing for the loved one and Lusnakn Arer (The Moon Has Set In) reflects feelings of tender love. 4. They are followed by Tamzara (Armenian Dance Song), a popular Western Armenian dance tune, which owes it's unique charm to peculiar rhythms. 5. Sandee Yerk (Labor Song) is an example of a labor song originating from the Shatakh Vaspurakan Province. It's opening exclamations are typical for songs of this genre, driving the rhythm of the work. 6. Widely popular among the Armenians, Sona Yar (Armenian Dance Song) is a dance song, performed by dancers in a circle. The pattern originates from the town of Van and is different from Komidas' recording and arrangement Sona Yar. 7. In the Western Armenian mourning song Al Chem Khagha (I Shall Play No More - Mourning Song), sadness is created by a beautiful lyrical melody winding against the tender rolling of suspended voices. 8. The extremely popular Arshakn Yelav (Arshak Rises - Tragic Song), also known as Shorora Salat, tells the story of the young fisherman, Arshak, who is perishing in the sea while his wife, Salat, unaware of his death, dances at a feast. The masterful, elaborate use of the chorus and the deliberate disconnection of the melody from the dance rhythm underscores the grim and tragic background of Salat's dance. 9. Contrasting with it is the Akh Sevavor, Sevig Aghchig (Oh Dark, Dark Girl) duet displaying the facetious song genre. This is a dialog between the mother, who wants her daughter to marry a wealthy person by the name Van, and the girl who is in love with the poor villager Sako. 10. The dance tune of Kanachel a Arteru (The Garden Has Blossomed) emerged in the town of Shirak where it is still popular. Following one another as an exquisite and picturesque illustration of life in the countryside, these tender songs bring with them the flavor of the composer's homeland - Armenia. By Alina Pahlevanian, Ethnomusicologist, Professor of the Komitas Conservatory of Music.

    Do You Believe
    This Accoustic Album includes eight original songs that were written by Craig A. Willis (listen to song samples). Craig included 'Falling Out Of Love' which is one of his favorite songs by John Denver and 'Darcy Farrow' written by Gillette and Campbell. Craig is a member of ASCAP and has over two dozen music and lyric credits that are sure to please every listener. His band, The C.A.Willis Band is an up and coming HOT COUNTRY performing act. They perform all of his original songs as well as songs by some of country's greatest stars of today and yesterday. Craig wrote WAYLON, WILLIE AND KRIS as a tribute to the great Waylon Jennings as well as some of the heros of COUNTRY MUSIC such as Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and many others. Craig has been deeply imbedded in country music all of his life. Spending time at his grandma's house he heard it nearly everyday of his life. 'It's all we listened to at home', said Craig, 'and I have learned not only to love to listen, but to play and sing because of it.' Craig was one of John Denver's greatest fans. Even his desktop background is a tribute to this great performer. With over five hundred songs to his credit from writing and performing, John Denver made an impact upon the music world and upon Craig A. Willis. THE LIFE HE CHOSE is a simple statement about the decisions that everyone make for their lives. Growing up in the midwest, Craig is very aware of the plight of farming families and the great tradition they have shared over countless generations to pass down and hold on to the family farms. He has seen the love for the land and their dedication to that love. This song is dedicated to that spirit and love. For Father's Day, Craig wrote and performed THE SECOND OF for his dad. 'Often times it's not finding it hard to say things to your dad,' Craig said, 'but knowing how to say what you feel. This song is straight from the heart about how important my dad has been to me through the years.' And, it is evident that it is truly from the heart. LITTLE ONE was written with a coworker in mind. The thought was suggested to him by the young woman who was preparing to have her first baby. This lullaby has attracted alot of attention for his beauty and simplicity. The words are certain to warm the heart. Craig wrote DO YOU BELIEVE, the title track of this album as a love ballad. It has pleased fans everywhere. The message it delivers means so many things to so many different people, it is a MUST HAVE selection to any music collection. COWBOY'S DREAM is just that. What every cowboy dreams of, his special cowgirl. One of the most fascinating things about this song is the attention that it has drawn from children. One fan reported that his two year old insists upon hearing the song over and over in the car and that the sentiment was mirrored by his four and six year old. He said that he must have heard it over a dozen times, at their request, when picking them up from daycare and school. WHO ARE YOU DREAMING OF is about the thoughts one has when seeing their soul mate sleeping. Wondering if her dreams are the same, and if they are shared. This album is a great collector's piece and will most certainly be followed by many other albums from this new rising star.

    Christmas Fantasy & Other Favorites
    A Christmas Fantasy and Other Favorites begins and ends with musical versions of 'The Night Before Christmas.' The opening movement of the Fantasy Concerto 'On Christmas Themes' for Piano and Orchestra is a musical setting of Clement Clark Moore's poem 'A Visit from St. Nicholas,' better known as 'The Night Before Christmas.' The music begins with the quiet house where 'not a creature is stirring, not even a mouse.' The piano enters with the first variation of the Christmas carols 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen' and ' Silent Night,' and builds to the arrival of St. Nicholas 'Up On the Housetop.' The second movement is 'Silent Night' in the Christmas wrappings of a chorale prelude, followed by humorous variations on Leroy Anderson's 'Sleigh Ride.' Commissioned by Seth Montfort for the San Francisco Concerto Orchestra, Montfort asked McFarland to compose a Christmas piece with an American sound-the listener will hear echoes of American composers: Gottschalk, Gershwin and Anderson. Ron McFarland, a California native, has known the glare of the limelight since his teens. He has been praised by major critics both as composer and pianist with comments like, 'The music reveals much of the man...romantic and passionate,' 'compelling lyricism,' 'fresh and original,' and 'dreamy obstinate and emotional, ever direct and accessible.' Renowned Bay Area music critic Stephanie von Buchau wrote, 'McFarland's music has a fresh musical viewpoint. One is not assaulted by bizarre concepts or noises that pass for 'originality'... [using] traditional forms and melodic material, he aims for individual expression of emotion, and that alone is enough to make him a rare duck in contemporary music.' At the age of sixteen he became a protégé of the legendary Ethel Leginska, and after three years of study he made a successful Los Angeles piano debut with symphony conducted by Leginska. The L.A. Examiner wrote, 'his tone quality, his emotional directness and his amazing fluent fingers added to a musical grasp of light and shade, earned this teen-ager repeated calls from his listeners.' He was then invited to live in an apartment adjacent to Leginska's Hollywood studio. It was during the next three years while living at her studio that he met and performed for numerous internationally known artists, composers and conductors, who included: Artur Schnabel, Benjamin Britten and Bruno Walter. While still in his teens, he studied composition with Arnold Schoenberg, one of the greatest masters of 20th Century composition and later continued his studies in orchestration with David Sheinfeld in San Francisco. After playing several solo piano pieces including two from his own unfinished 'Piano Suite,' it was Bruno Walter who said, 'Young man, your are a fine pianist, and I certainly don't mean you should give it up, but this is the real you - a composer. Perhaps a composer-pianist, but a composer first!' Leginska and Schoenberg were the two most important teachers in his young life. He remembers Leginska as a very demanding taskmaster who stipulated that her students enter as many competitions as possible, because she believed the experience was tantamount to launching concert careers - as finalist in the Hollywood Bowl competition he performed with the KFI-Hollywood Bowl Symphony Orchestra conducted by James Sample. After six years of study with Leginska, he left the Hollywood world of recitals and competitions and traveled to New Orleans, where he began a career as an artist. While in New Orleans, he met the Hungarian pianist Istvan Nadas, a teacher at Loyola University, and decided to renew his piano studies. Later, when Nadas accepted a teaching position at the San Francisco Conservatory, McFarland decided to return to California as well. During the long drive from New Orleans to San Francisco, he was haunted by the strains of the unfinished 'Suite for Piano' that he had begun with Schoenberg. He could hardly wait to reach the Bay Area and put his musical thoughts down of paper - his Op 1. It was then that writing music became the major commitment in his life. When Nadas heard the completed 'Suite' he was so taken with it that he included it in his Festival of 20th Century Piano Music at San Francisco State University. The work then won first prize and a 'Special Achievement Award' from the Composers Today Competition of the Music Teachers' Association of California. McFarland began writing for many different combinations of instruments, including compositions for violin, string quartet, two-pianos, including a suite for orchestra with narrator, and a children's opera for San Domenico's School Festivals. He next embarked on writing 'The Donner Party,' an opera based on the prize-winning book by George Keithley, with libretto by Maria Woodward on a commission from Chico State University. The Opera News review read, 'The pioneers reach the top of the Wasatch Mountains to a glorious up-welling in the orchestra worthy of Bartok. The Passacaglia theme imprints itself vividly on the ear and the final duet is beautifully lyrical.' The Berkeley Symphony conducted by Kent Nagano performed a concert version of this opera called 'Tamsen Donner.' Nagano called the work, 'a score to be treated with respect and one worthy of a great production.' McFarland's second opera, 'Song of Pegasus,' was a finalist in New York University's American Opera Competition. It has since received many performances, including the summer 'In Performance' series, conducted by noted San Francisco Ballet and Opera conductor Denis de Coteau. He joined the Bay Area Playwrights Festival Opera Studio, funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, where he composed his often performed comic opera 'The Audition Of Molly Bloom.' The S.F. Examiner called McFarland's 'amusingly schizophrenic 'Molly Bloom,' a hypothetical audition piece that toys with Mozart and comes awfully close to being a hip saloon piece.' Besides the operas mentioned above, he has written symphonies, concertos, chamber works, songs and music for the piano, theater and for children. The second of his commissions from the San Francisco Girls Chorus was 'The Night Before Christmas' that became the centerpiece of their Sing-Along Christmas Concert and premiered at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco. A notable collaboration occurred when he received a call from Edward Hastings, Artistic Director of the American Conservatory Theatre, to write the incidental music for Hastings' production of 'King Lear.' It's success led him to write a version for two spoken voices with instruments, premiered with 'Lear' actors Peter Donat and Fredi Olster. A third version for singers resulted from the request of Metropolitan Opera tenor William Lewis, who gave it's premiere performance. McFarland's music has been commissioned, performed, and broadcast by such organizations as the Alexander String Quartet, Marin Arts Quartet, Marin Symphony, Old First Concerts, Composers, Inc. California Shakespeare Festival, New Eureka Theatre, San Francisco Concerto Orchestra, Voices/SF, Kensington Symphony Orchestra, Squaw Valley Creative Arts Society, College of Marin, American Concert Association, San Francisco Musical Club, Marin Chamber Orchestra, Guest Concert Series, Dominican University, Chamber Music Sundaes, Navarro Trio, Cinnabar Opera Theater, Angelo Piano Duo, KKHI Sunday Morning and KKHI Friday Night Concerts. He has received grants and awards from such organizations as the ASCAP, University of Cincinnati Piano Concerto Competition, Opera America, and five 1st prizes from Composers Today Competition. He has lectured for California Colleges and Universities, including S.F. City College Concert Lecture Series, USC Composers Forum, UC Berkeley, MTAC Artists Series, Chico State University, and Star Classics Composer and Performer.
