About the Artist

Pete Pecora, Jr. is a woodwind player, composer, and arranger in Central New York. He is a member of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP). Influences include Buddy DeFranco & Henry Questa for clarinet; Hubert Laws, Herbie Mann, Dave Valentin & James Galway for flute; Tom Scott, Wilton Felder, Cannonball Adderley, Sonny Rollins, Stanley Turrentine & Bruce Johnstone for saxophone; Chicago, Tom Scott, Gustav Holst, Leonard Bernstein, William Grant Still & John Williams for composing. All instrument sounds on Pete's music for woodwinds (solos, trios, quartets) are generated by Notion Music Notation software. He plays flute on "Another Broken Spring," "By the Fireside," "Conversations," "Espresso," "Full Circle," "Keep the Faith," "Movin' On," "Psalm 150," and "Secrets." All other instruments (except guitar solos on some songs) are from GarageBand. Ed Gorham performs guitar solos on "Full Circle," "Espresso," "Movin' On," "Beside Still Waters," and "Pussycat Samba" and is featured on his original song, "Not the Bossa Me." "Another Broken Spring," "By the Fireside," "Conversations," "Espresso," "Full Circle," "Keep the Faith," "Movin' On," "Psalm 150," "Secrets," "Electric Iced Tea," "Dirt Track Summer," "Snowfall," "Beside Still Waters," "The Long Road Home," "Pussycat Samba," "Invention 2 for Piano," and "The Lost City" are copyrighted by Pete Pecora, Jr. Pete's original music and arrangements are available for purchase from the following sources: *Sheet music & PDF downloads for "A Stroll Down The Avenue," "Out of The Shire," "A Day in The City for Flute & Piano," "Salt City Chill," "The Sailor and The Sea," "Sussex Carol," "A Jazz Christmas," ”A Jazz Christmas II,” "Angels from the Realms of Glory," "Joy to the World: Meditation & Celebration for Saxophone Quartet," "Tenacity for Bb Clarinet & Piano," "Ragtime for Bb Clarinet & Piano" (as well as versions of these pieces for other instruments), and "La Poursuite Implacable" are available at www.wonderfulwinds.com. This music is copyrighted by and published by Wonderful Winds and appears on this site by permission. Sheet music & PDF downloads for "Niagara Majesty,” “Autumn Rain,” “March of the Robots,” “The Journey,” "Music for a December Evening," all Telemann Suite arrangements, & "More Music for a December Evening" are available from Alea Publishing & Recording (https://bassclarinet.ecwid.com). This music is copyrighted by and published by Alea Publishing & Recording and appears on this site by permission. "A Day in The City for Flute and Piano" portrays a person visiting a big city for the very first time, being completely overwhelmed by it and then, at the end, enjoying it. "The Sailor and The Sea" tells the story of a retired sailor living in the early twentieth century. Each day he sits on the shore of the sea watching and listening to the waves. As he does so, he falls into a series of reveries in which he remembers his sailing days. The opening statement represents the waves upon the shore, and repeats at various times during the piece. The first reverie has the sailor remembering his sailing days, represented by a spirited sea shanty (“Sailing Days”) and, after a return to the wave motif, he remembers his days as a young man in the dance halls (“Dance Hall Days”). A short return of the wave motif leads us into memories of “a faraway seaport, a lost love” and “a waltz to remember.” This is followed by the immediate return to the sailor’s true love - the sea - and a return to the sea shanty. Pete appears as guest flute soloist on the following songs: "Not the Bossa Me" - written, arranged, and copyrighted by Ed Gorham. It appears on this site by permission.
