Announcement |
To
all visitors to my website in the last several months: We
have been experiencing difficulties accessing the host server
for updates since early February.
Worse
than that was an unresolved problem with several of the email
forms on the site. As a result, we were not receiving email
queries generated by the Booking
Form until
now. We are trying to reconstruct the lost information and
call everyone who had left a message. I sincerely apologize
if this delay has caused anyone difficulty or disappointment.
If you wish to resubmit your query, please do so and I will
contact you at the earliest opportunity.
I thank you for your patience. I'm not a
techie kind of guy, just a fiddle player, and I value my friends
and fans too much to toss this off lightly. Once again, if
you've recently tried to get in touch with me using the Booking
Form, please try again.
Best to you all,
Jim Graseck

Jim Graseck is known and loved by New Yorkers
for his solo violin performances in venues ranging from Carnegie
Hall to MTA subway platforms. A graduate of The Juilliard
School, he has been soloist with orchestras in New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and South Carolina. His numerous television
appearances include The Tonight Show, Prime
Time Live, The Morning Show, and
VH1's Behind the Music. Jim's film credits
include "One True Thing," starring
William Hurt and Meryl Streep.
It is clear that Graseck is a serious artist
with something to say. At the same time, he has made great
music and virtuoso performances accessible — virtually
at arm's length — to anyone with the good luck to stumble
onto him. |

into Summer — "BROADWAY" |

Jim Graseck makes his violin sing to a
Broadway beat. From the liveliness and polish of Steve Cohen's
sophisticated arrangements to the improvisational verve of
renowned musicians Lee Musiker on piano, Bucky Pizzarelli
on guitar and Jon Burr on bass, Jim Graseck's latest CD collection
delivers some of the sweetest, swinging-est music of Broadway.
Here are standards that have endured because they epitomize
the best of Broadway's traditions — great melodies,
infectious rhythms and emotional punch. |
