All The Things You Are

Today we’re pulling back the curtain at Daily Joy. I’m Jarrod Lentz, and not only am I the singer in this video, but I am also a proud member of the From the Top marketing team. If you’ve received a Daily Joy in the past two years, I’m probably the one who wrote the description and sent it to you!

My journey with FTT began in 2002, when I first appeared on the show, singing selections from Ralph Vaughan Williams’ “Songs of Travel”. I was featured in a “Where are they now?” episode a few years later, as well as in a textbook published by McGraw Hill. My FTT journey came full circle in 2022 when I joined the marketing team!

It’s been a wonderful experience supporting the next generation of brilliant young musicians behind the scenes. One of the many cool things I get to do is film social media content with our incredible host, Peter Dugan. On our most recent shoot, we decided to make some music together. It’s such an honor to collaborate with a musician as brilliant as Peter, and I hope you enjoy what we made.

Here’s our rendition of “All the Things You Are” by Jerome Kern with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II.
