Audio Performance

Our latest recording.  This is my first one with the new array mbira and Marianne’s first with the Irish flute and whistle.

So what do you all think of vibes in the context of traditional Irish music?  Definitely NOT traditional.  :)

Here's a link to the whole album: 

Do you have a fav cd you want to mention? Put in this google form: 

Here is the form.

What do you guys think of this CD? Like it? Hate it? In the middle? 

Ok, I'm working on Pannonica. I hope some of you guys are working on it also. I posted an etude. 

It's here.

When I study these tunes I think of 2 parts. 

• The first part is can I make lessons around the tune. Do I know the tune well enough.
• Next, can I make a decent audio recording. 
• Next, can I make a decent video recording
• Finally can I play it on a gig, solo or with the band. 

Hey guys, here's a session I did with Elijah cole

This is guitar and vibes. It's cool because with no bass or drums, we have to do more and be more creative with our accompaniment!

There's an incredible guitarist in Philly. His name is Elijah Cole. He's a monster. 

We did a duo session. And I'm about to put it up on band camp, but I thought I'd post a track here for Subscribers. I'm such a nice guy huh? 

I talked in another post about the release of Sunset Glow featuring myself and David Friedman. 

I thought I would embed the CD here for anyone who wants to check it out. 

This goes along with this etude I posted:

I mentioned I would post my version of the tune. I work hard on playing tunes solo. As many of you know, I think great players and play by themselves. They can play solo. 

How do you work on this? Record ourself playing melodies for starters, then tap along with them and check the time. 

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.

Mutsumi Moteki, piano

Recorded at the University of Colorado Boulder

This is an arrangement I did of Ellington's "I Got it Bad". The pianist is a political science professor I met recently, Peter Minowitz.
