Quasimodo is a contrafact based on Embraceable you. It's a beautiful melody.
Your assignment is to learn the melody and play it well! Record it and upload it. Just the melody is fine. You will get a lot out of this as it's a melody to a tune but also a great solo in a way. Lots of bebop tunes sound like great solos!
What do you think? I think this is a very interesting solo!!!
My goal for the summer is to work on one solo tune per week- I will try to be posting my progress here!

Best Dave Samuels memory or story? Anything funny you can share?
Do you?
Which is cool that Stefon is on this show because Stefon thinks the vibes should be taken out of the percussion family and moved in with the Piano.
Great interview!
Listen to the first tune! Ode to Billy Joe. And the second tune. I think he does a good job playing pop tunes! What do you think? Some people play pop tunes and it's not very convincing to me and others totally turn the tune into something!
