His debut Album Open Your Heart, is a wonderful collection of ten tunes that all prominently feature the smooth jazz trombone and play as a tapestry of content devoted to Alpert’s life and experiences.
Two of the most well received tunes off the Smooth Jazz Album “Thinking About You” and “Zen Funk.” “Thinking About You” is a tribute to his departed mother and wife and the song is ripe with emotion. “Zen Funk” is, similarly, a tribute to the Ken-Ka-Kung Fu Club (a martial arts school which Geoff has been both a student/teacher at for four decades). The intent behind almost every song on this album is extremely apparent and gives both the artist as well as the work a very personable touch. Geoff explains that, “this album – like my teaching of Ken-Ka-Kung Fu – is all about love, sharing and the willingness to open your heart.”
You can listen to the album on iTunes, CD Babyand Amazon.
