“In an intimate and visceral way Brooklyn vibraphonist Chris Dingman knows too well that music can ease life’s most difficult passages.
The San Jose-raised jazz musician set out to create new sounds in the summer of 2018 to help comfort his father, Joseph Dingman Jr., as he faced his final weeks in hospice.
