"IN A WORD"

Featuring Don Friedman, piano; Dennis Irwin, bass
and Special Guest Ralph Lalama, tenor saxophone.

The inspiration for this project was that a single word can hold
the power to create a lasting resonance in the jazz repertoire, and
it likewise acknowledges the bread of life for a singer ― the lyric.

"A truly personable trio backing an enchanting voice." - Thomas Staudter

REMEMBER - IMAGINATION - L-O-V-E - IMPOSSIBLE - YESTERDAYS

Produced by Ralph Lalama

In A Word

Don't Go, Don't Leave, Please Stay
Paris/Rio Express (With Charles Haynes)

Pasternak's recordings include "Winter Samba" (1987), an album of original work and "Nicole/The Song Is You" (1989), a CD for Cexton Records. She is featured on a recording by musician, composer and arranger Charles Haynes, "Paris/Rio Express" (1996) that demonstrates her range from improviser to chanteuse and debuts her lyrics to Django Reinhardt's "Nuages." On her CD, "Don't Go, Don't Leave, Please Stay" (1998), she teams up with the Alan Simon Trio and tenor saxophonist Ralph Lalama of the famed Vanguard Jazz Orchestra.
