Just Sayin'.

I taught Dennis when he was at the Curtis Institute.

I could not believe how good his ears and his memory were. He could face the other way, I could play some 4 mallet stuff and he would come over and play it back. He was a freak.

I just saw this tonight. Dennis is something else!

Hope you can make it!

I've been listening to a lot of pianists and slow blues, trying to replicate the staccato stride kind of style. Here's "In a Sentimental Mood!"

Your imagination is only limited by what you know!

I love this quote and it sums up everything for me.

I know what it means to me, what does it mean to you?

Let's figure out the first class for I'll Remember April.

How about the 15th. 7pm EST, I could also do 8pm as well.

Remember if you want to take the class:

Have been working on this tune for a few weeks and its a transcription of the sax and trumpet solos, managed to nail most of it except two bars of Charlie's solo where its a lot of notes at a very fast speed so forgive my attempt even though I put a lot of hours into this section in particular. I am playing drums as well just added a bass line. Anyway hope you like it and as always comments welcome.

Playing with Tony on a blues! Super fun.

Hey everyone -- This is Quincy Jones's "Jessica's Day." Always working on my stride playing...
