Last night in Hollywood 😉

Got inspired by a video with George Benson playing with Benny Goodman! It’s in YouTube. We play in that same spirit here, but in our own way 😉🎻 Art is by Ken Taylor and musicians are me, Izaak Weatherwax, Sam Rocha and Miles Jensen 🖤 #jazzsky #violinsky

Love this wonderful picture of Stephane

Magic prevails 🎻❤️ (Thank you to Stefan Simchowitz gallery & Tin Man!)

Probably the best two minutes of your day.

“Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.” --Teddy Roosevelt (R)

Sharing a magic melody with Michael Feinstein, founder of the Great American Songbook Foundation. My friend — and someone who has given me wondrous information about this great music that we care so much for. 🤎 Thank you as always Michael 🎹 xo

Life is full of moments in which we must sink or swing! 😉🎻 Come see us Tuesday 12/2 at Bar Lubitsch at 8pm ❤️ Miles Jensen, Izaak Weatherwax and Sam Rocha here. #jazz #losangeles

On this day of gratitude, I’m so grateful to Michael Feinstein for being a wealth of knowledge about how our American songbook was created — and of course for his music and friendship. It’s wonderful to share a tune with a friend 🤎🎻 #jazzsky #musicsky

Jon Batiste’s album “Big Money” is now officially nominated for a Grammy! So grateful to play on track 5 of this special recording and to have played on this tour — along with some of the greatest musicians in the world. Love to you all and thank you to Jon for having me as always 🎻🤎 #grammys

The only person whose standard of living has improved during this Trump term is Ghislaine Maxwell.

Yes, I agree. Obviously, if I am playing a Django tune w/ a guitar player it is appropriate to say that that could be called gypsy jazz; Though I wouldn’t call it that. I would just call it jazz/ swing. But people hear me with a pianist playing a song from the 50s and still call it gypsy jazz lol 😂

Sharing 2 new paintings by me currently available for sale on noragermain.com/art ❤️ Your support is greatly appreciated — and thank you. Both are 24”x24” acrylic on canvas and I do ship them myself. 📦 Thank you to all previous buyers for your encouragement. 🙂

Always love playing with Michael 🙂🎹
