In 1997, Jonathan David Sloate began writing numerous songs that eventually became the bedrock for a new musical, The New Picasso. In 2001, Jonathan conceived the original story of The New Picasso, and after completing the libretto & score in 2002 he recorded a selection of songs from the musical with a large symphonic orchestra in Europe. Several tracks on the two original concept albums, "Act One" and "Act Two," feature those recordings of the 59-piece Prague Symphony Orchestra. Summary Synopsis "Tormented by his mother's suicide, Jon Bernard (Max von Essen) is driven to become the greatest painter that the world has ever known. Incapable of embracing the unconditional love and adoration from his childhood sweetheart, Jennifer Robbins (Brooke Sunny Moriber), or from his caring father, Nate (William Parry), and upbeat group of friends (Rodney Hicks, John Jeffrey Martin, Steven M. Goldsmith), Jon innocently entangles himself into the ever-scheming clutches of Vanguard City's most powerful art dealer, Jules De Medici (Robert Cuccioli), who remains deeply obsessed with the memory of Jon's mother, Nicolette Bernard (Christiane Noll). The dark passionate journey Jon embarks upon to discover the depths of true love brings him to the brink of disaster and ruin once Jules entices him with a stunning temptress, Alexandra Laurent (Ashley Amber). So befalls this epic tale of betrayal, obsession, resurrection, and the quest for love's ultimate redemption… The Soul."
