CT Jazz Pianist, Orice Jenkins. Hello, He’s Only 15!
Orice Jenkins is only 15 years old but already plays like a master jazz musician. He was booked to play at the Goodspeed Musicals Gala, and play he did and got everybody’s attention including that of Academy Award, Golden Globe winning singer-songwriter, Paul Williams.
Orice is a very talented young man and have heard him play many, many times. Your article is right on the money.
I wish for Orice someday a huge grand piano of his very own where he can continue to WOW his audiences. He’s just a great guy.
I just love the idea that this is happening. It’s just in the blood. He will do well, and is doing great.
Orice is very talented indeed. But even jazz musicians working on their craft their whole lives still have things to learn from the music, their peers and other master jazz artists. I’m sure he’ll benefit greatly from the Litchfield Jazz Camp in Kent, CT this summer, including many performance opportunities including playing on a dedicated second stage at the Litchfield Jazz Festival’s 15th Anniversary August 6-8.
