Anthony Kerr (vibes) plays Summertime solo
I first heard of Anthony Kerr in the late nineties when he was a member of Georgie Fame's R&B band, and it caught my attention for no other reason than my fascination with players who have to make the vibes blend into a rhythm section. Anthony now teaches at Royal Academy of Music, and I discovered this solo performance the other day.
What I find interesting is that he plays "Summertime" more uptempo than the usual ballad interpretations one would expect from a soloist. I like his left-hand technique as well, and his sense of time pulls it together.
