Hello guys, here's another clip from the Berklee recital Joe and I played. This is a clip of us playing the Beatle's Blackbird. We played it with an AAB form. Joe came up with a lead sheet that includes some specific rhythmic chord hits. Joe's changes at the bridge include some subtle reharm variations. Check out Joe's solo. A beautiful example of a melodic solo that builds in intensity. Instead of playing over the form, we each played over a specific chord progression as shown on the lead sheet. Hope you enjoy it.

A clip of Joe and I playing the standard (1931) Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams. A fun tune to play stride and 4 beats to bar time feel as in Freddie Green w/Basie, Dave McKenna, Errol Garner, George Shearing, etc. These changes are what McKenna plays. Keith Jarrett and Bill Evans play something a bit different on the A section. Here's a copy of the lead sheet: http://www.scribd.com/doc/63417220/Wrap-Your-Troubles-in-Dreams-Lead-Sh…

Hello guys, Tony graciously posted Joe and I playing Stella By Starlight (which was the last tune of the concert). If anyone is interested in checking out more of the concert, all of the clips are now up on my YouTube channel. Gustavo shot and edited the video footage. He numbered each track and left in the talking so that the concert can be viewed as we played it.

My rendition of a Nepali folk tune that was taught to me by my friend Manose. The quartet is Justin Sekelewski (bass), Dan Hanrahan (guitar) and Gabe Globus-Hoenich (drums).

Interesting sounds and nice playing ! Enjoy !

I thought you guys might like to see this. I've been using these mallets for about 3 or 4 months and they are great! Much lighter than the old ones and I'm able to play 4 mallets way easier. They last a really long time as well. Stefon also shows some interesting techniques.
