The Happy Farmer (Schumann) by Stefan Vdb

Hello,

So after a zillion of takes I finally got one I dare to share. :-) You see I get nervous if I know people can hear me. especially playing sheetmusic, not so much when I improvise.

I started using the metronome with this one, because I was really lazy regarding speed. It was really confronting. Not only was I waaaaaay to slow, but I had no steady rhytm. the parts I knew I played too quick, the one I had problems with, too slow. and when done I just said : "there, I can play it".
I definetly need to continue on using it.

Over The Rainbow by David Friedman

Just finished recording the new Duo CD, "The music of Harold Arlen", with Peter Weniger. In case some of you vibers don't know his music, he wrote songs in 30's 40's and 50's, such as, "Come rain or come shine", "Blues in the night", "Sleepin' Bee", just to name a few. This is an unmixed arrangement I did of "Somewhere over the rainbow", with some reharmonizations and a classic "Tony Micelli" stick drop at the end. This, as well as my final comment, will not be on the CD

Hello,

I just spend some time listening on the internet to make up my mind what to order. :-)

The decision was for :

together with Chick corea :
Hot house (CD)
Live in Munich (DVD)

and also : Libertango, the music of Astor Piazzolla.
I saw on youtube some videofragments when performing these songs. Does anyone know if you can still find this video somewhere ?(it was filmed in Buenos aires 2009)

thanks.
