Jordanâs other original solo instrumental CDs include âShimmerâ, âWorld Trade Center Suiteâ, âSymmetryâ, and âPictures Of Meâ.

"My Provincetown" is a collection of 10 of Jordan E. Spivack's instrumental compositions. Each piece presents a musical mood painting of the composer's vivid memories of his many visits to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The entire CD is written, performed, arranged, and produced by Mr. Spivack. In the composer's own words: "Provincetown, a small village on the tip of Cape Cod, off the coast of Massachusetts, is one of my favorite places on earth. During many summer vacations in P-Town, I have come to love the natural beauty of the beaches, dunes, and surrounding bodies of water. The busy downtown district, bursting with terrific little shops and restaurants, the myriad art galleries, and bustling throngs of people of all types, is a site to behold. And above it all is the towering Pilgrimâs Monument, representing the historical significance of the area. This suite represents my musical impressions of a vacation paradise. If youâve ever been to P-Town, I hope it brings back lovely memories. If you havenât yet visited P-Town, I hope it makes you want to go there as soon as possible."

âMy Provincetownâ celebrates [Spivack's] love of the town...Like postcards from personal landmarks, these tracks evoke a voyage through the shifting scenes of Provincetown. âCafé Blaséâ is full of unpredictable energy much like the former restaurant, and âPilgrimâs Monumentâ is marked by majestic horns. Swirling and uplifting piano melodies enliven âCommercial Streetâ, which effectively evokes a walk through town in the high season. âAtlantic Houseâ stands out from its relaxed neighbors by adopting a bouncy dance beat, which dissipates in a reflective moment and then returns in full force.

"The other side of the sonic spectrum is explored in âChristmas Around The Capeâ, which stirs up a quieter, quainter but no less heartfelt winter season on beautiful Cape Cod. âPortuguese Bakeryâ honors one of our most delicious institutions with brisk, lively chords, while âSunset at Herring Coveâ is so easygoing you can almost feel the sand beneath your feet. The closing number, âDunesâ, feels like a revealing journey into the past and present of the sandy realms that seem to envelop Provincetown in mystery. All these tracks are imbued with personal meaning as they translate the feelings of Provincetown into fresh and inspired electronic soundscapes.â
