Gerry Schubert's "Life in the Moment" offers the listener a variety of spectacular moods. His music soars with energy, cascading into peaceful interludes, and all the while "Life in the Moment" encourages the listener to dream and create.

An inspiring work of art. Music to dream by. I love to listen to this recording hour after hour without tiring of the melodic music. I hope the composer puts out a new CD soon so I can enjoy more of this talented musician.

Congratulations to the composer for the music on this lovely CD. I would recommend it to anyone who loves music. Please write some more Mr. Schubert. (You have a great name for a musician.)

I truly enjoyed listening to this CD. The composition was original and flowed througout the piece. The excellent piano playing blended well with the orchestra. It was very relaxing and a welcome change from the fast pace of our time. I highly recommend this CD.

I found this CD to be very innovative and refreshing. I listen to a wide range of music and count this among my favorite CD's. His style, while closest to the 'New Age' genre, is at the same time both unique and moving in it's own way. I really enjoy his music.

Do you remember plain, bright moments in your life? Strolling through the forest together with your father, romping about with coevals at a cottage verandah in a warm summer evening, the pleasure of intimacy with your beloved or your child's laughter? With his plain and joyful music Jerry Schubert just calls on to recollect the moments of your life when you felt fine. His music is like snapshot photographies taken in the splendiferous, pure moments.

"Life in The Moment" is a brilliant solo album of Jerry Schubert. In this album he stands both as a composer and a performer. And it must be said that the musician succeeded in everything. Jerry Schubert wins listeners over with fascinating arrangements, romantic melodies accompanied by rich orchestration. It is important to mention here the joviality and sincerity of his music. In addition, "Life in the Moment" compositions are performed with a real inspiration.

Jerry Schubert and a large group of musicians were working as one team on the "Life in the Moment" album. His orchestra consists of Tim May and Grant Geissman (guitar), Bob Zimmitti (drums/percussion), Tom Walsh (drums), Brian Kilgore (percussion), Sid Page (violin), Ken Wild (bass), Bill Lanphier (bass) and Gary Herbig (saxophone). Multifarious real instruments emphasize an impeccable line of a melodic piano pattern of Jerry Schubert very subtly. I would like to distinguish "Eye of the Storm" and "The Wedding" with its softly jingling bells although this distinguishing is very relative: there are no uninteresting compositions in the album.

Jerry Schubert works at the turn of pop-music, smooth jazz and new age. The musician says that when he sits down to the piano he just lets his fingers express freely what he feels at the moment. In Jerry Schubert's music the simplicity and the personality go well together. His album is a single whole, a living organism. "Life in the Moment" can be compared with a blossoming- out lilac plant giving its delicate aroma to a bright day in May.

When listening to Jerry Schubert's music one wants to celebrate life and realize that against all the odds the spring will come! It is sure to come...

I am really enjoying this album. The music is very romantic and wistful. I find it really good to just relax and day dream with.

If Gerry's music were put to canvas, I imagine it would be reminiscent of Thomas Kinkade's Romantic Luminescent paintings.

Pick up a copy and enjoy it.
