Who is Chick82?

Marie-Noëlle 8 July 2011

Hey Chick82!

You joined us some 2 months ago as subscriber and we quite often see you online. You even had the nice thought of wishing Tony a happy birthday on the chat... But we don't hear much from you... hardly a comment, no post...

I can see that you're living in Italy. Can you tell us more about you?.... Please!! :o)

i try to get rid of my own cliches and try to get some sort of "new" aspects to my playing. this kind of solo i would never play on a reharsel or gig but i think it´s important to play some wiered stuff sometimes, to get used to the sound and if even just 1 or 2 small ideas of a 10 minutes solo work out ok or good you get something out of it.
3 main things i tried on this practice tape:
1) try to keep an idea once you established it

this is one piece of my last gig on sunday, written by my friend the guitar player jan called: trenne nie st

funny is: i forgot to play the head again at the end of my solo.i only realized this because of the video.

p.s. i thought it´s fair to post this video since i could not play at hang although tony and dana tried to convince me...now you see why i could not :)

Lament by BarryK

BarryK 5 July 2011

I was playing the piano and wanted to randomly choose a tune out of the RealBook, and opened to Lament by J. J. Johnson. I think it is a beautiful ballad. Here is my attempt of an arrangement for vibes. I tried to get the fullness I was getting on the piano, but it is tough on (my) vibes. Maybe at some point, I will record piano, and play vibes on top of it. I found that Ted posted a piano/vibes duet of Lament (see Check This Out, above). And here is Milt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgjs2qUXqy0.
