Heaven Bound is the new release from pianist/composer/actor Vincent Lyn. A collection of original, catchy compositions that range from the smooth funk jazz of tracks like "Stolen Moments", and "Old Croy" to the Brasil flavors of "Island Carnival" and "Sintra". Fernanda Capela adds her beautiful voice to "Sintra", the Bossa Nova "New York City Bossa", the ballad "Heaven Bound", the samba "Island Carnival", the 3/4 tempo "A funny thing just happened" and on "Little Sunflower". In all these tracks Fernanda sings in portuguese except on "Little Sunflower". Vincent Lyn showcase his classical side and good technique on "Gymnopedie No. 1", "Toccata in D Minor" and "Prelude in C# Minor".
