Artist picture
Quirky, jazzy contemporary classical music. Tom Waits, Gil Evans, and a young Igor Stravinsky rent a house together in Baltimore and write cartoon music.
If I were a baker I would make it my life's mission to sell hotcakes very, very slowly. But I'm not. I'm just a silly little boy who writes silly little music.

Story behind the song
Getting stuck in an elevator with a delusional man is the last straw for Janine, and she collapses after a frantic tyrade about all of the things she has to worry about. "Be Still and Breathe," is Joan's comforting advice. == Janine of Newark is a short comic opera about a no-nonsense businesswoman who gets trapped in an elevator with a man who thinks he is Joan of Arc. Text by Emily Noel, except for "Janine's Breakdown" and "Be Still and Breathe." Performance April 2003 at Theatre Project, Baltimore MD (http://www.theatreproject.org/) Jessica Hanel as Janine Steven Ziegler as Joan Jerome Tan, Piano Joanne Kulezsa, Coach
