Description

"In This Moment" is a fantastic CD full of upbeat and funky smooth jazz that features 10 original tracks with styles ranging from smooth jazz, to acid-jazz, and soulful ballads. This CD is full of music that will get you grooving, along with soulful mellow melodies to kick back and relax with.

What's notable about this project is that the lead instrument, the flute... is one that is not always heard in the sax dominated world of smooth jazz.

Zig Noda's unique approach to the flute comes from an unconventional musical education. Whereas most flutists are conservatory trained, Zig is primarily a "self-taught" musician whose love for jazz, r&b, and contemporary music inspires him to interpret those emotions through an instrument not usually reserved for jazz.

Zig Noda's musical background includes performing with artists such as Harold Todd (sax player for Lenny Kravitz), Artie Webb (legendary Latin Jazz Flutist), Eric Stiller (Los Angeles studio bassist for many artists), and the late Curtis Peagler (sax player for Ray Charles and Count Basie). He was a participant in the first jazz flute masterclass given by virtuoso flutist James Newton in 1999. In 1990 Zig Noda received an award from the Professional Music Scholarship Program at the Berklee College of Music, but he never made the trip to Boston to pursue it.

In addition to playing flute, Zig is a composer and publisher member of ASCAP. He is currently working on recording and producing his next musical project.

"Hopefully the music I write and perform gives enjoyment to those who hear it. If my musical work can bring ease to a hectic day, soothe someone's soul, or bring joy to the heart of someone who listens to it - then I've done my job properly..." says the flutist. We agree...we think this is a great project.
