“Moment’s Notice”: A somewhat lengthy “stream of consciousness” and experimental practice session version of this classic by the great John Coltrane. I'm starting here without any specific technique in mind or any preconceived agenda and just seeing what happens and develops. Sometimes we lose and sometimes we win. There are a few times here where I almost “fall off the cliff” but I think it's not necessarily about perfection. For me, it’s the process that’s the focus and not specifically the final outcome.
The first test is on the frame V3 with single aluminum resonator tubes in rubber suspension as shown in my Youtube channel.
The second test is using a similar but much lighter frame locating singel PVC-tubes in new sheet metall suspension.
Unfortunately, my phone's microphone has been damaged since a fall, making it a chirping sound.
I really like his playing. I posted another video of his here. Listen to how he backs up a singer. I think he does a great job!
I like this version of ask me now! It's very melodic and everything joins together really well!
"Invitation" - composed by the great Polish film composer Bronislaw Kaper who also wrote "On Green Dolphin Street". Two of my favorite standards. Invitation is a unique and interesting song in terms of both melody and harmony. Always a great vehicle to improvise and experiment on.
