NOTES: Clyde Kerr Jr. is a much-loved music teacher and jazz instructor who spent 42 years in the classroom. He used a gentle approach to coax generations of New Orleans jazz musicians to find their talent, develop their confidence, and love music. His message is simple: "Keep your heart and soul open."
"This is Now!" is Clyde Kerr Jr.'s contribution to the recovery of New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. He uses his trumpet, boundless optimism, and deep spirituality to dispel sadness and despair. "I can't do anything about yesterday, and I can't do anything about tomorrow," he said. "I must deal with now."
"What's done is done. What will come, will come. This is now!" This life-affirming statement became the title of Kerr's first-ever studio CD. "After Katrina, we re-grouped and came back together", he said. "We must celebrate the moment."
