Well, I will have to give some sort of short workshop at the WVC (World Vibes Congress) this year. I was going to take notes and keep a diary on my computer and thought I would do it here. So I'll blog here and you guys can give me your two cents.
On Saturday we will link to all the videos for the second portion of the Day of Percussion on this page. Some players are playing live from 12-2. Others are submitting video which i will link to here.

I have some things to say but I'll wait. How about some of you start. Gary will check in to answer questions and comment (I'm pretty sure).

I wrote this tune after seeing the majestic, mysterious tomb of the Romantic French poet, François-René de Chateaubriand.
Under a large cross, it is the only tomb on a petite isle just off the beach at St. Malo, France.
A striking vista unfolds around it.
This samba was done with our University of Colorado Boulder Jazz Faculty in Grusin Aud. on campus.
I. Adagio
II. Allegro
III. Adagio ma non tanto
IV. Allegro This recording is uploaded in honor of the brilliant hearing of Bob McCormick, Tampa, FLA.
The sonata, originally for violin and clavier, offers so many possibilities for expressive rubato it's a cornucopia of interpretive riches.
