The 90’s, and up to now, have been a decade of constant work, as varied as any musician’s life could be. Larry worked with Panama Francis and the Jazz Sultans at Lincoln Center. He also worked with trumpeter Irwin Stokes and saxophonist Bubba Brooks. He recorded with famed cabaret singer Steve Ross, and has appeared with him at both Symphony Space and Lincoln Center. He is frequently called upon to accompany singers such as Toni Arden, Nancy Wilson, Connie Francis, Susan McNair, Al Martino, and Jerry Vale. He works with vocalists Sandy Jordan, Keisha St. John, and Jeanine Otis. He frequently appears at services at St. Mark’s in the Bowery and, along with his trio, gave his own concert at that historic Church in October 2002.
Larry has studied classical guitar privately and plays the mandolin professionally as well. He studies composition with Paul Caputo, and he also has a small private teaching practice. He was featured soloist on classical guitar in the New York Mandolin Ensemble playing transcriptions written by Dan Fox, author of “Charlie Christian: Art of Jazz Guitar” and “Herb Ellis: Art of Jazz Guitar.” His ability on classical guitar and mandolin was also put into play at The Enrico Fermi Institute with flutist Carol Sudhalter. Larry and Carol frequently play classical guitar/flute duets at concerts at Sacred Heart College.
Larry has played many dates in his new home borough of Queens. He has worked with his group at the Queens Library Jazz Festivals and at the Water’s Edge Restaurant. He currently can be seen every Monday night at Sac’s Restaurant in Astoria.
