Jeremy Kittel Band

Has anyone heard of Jeremy Kittel? He is a member of Turtle Island String Quartet. He's one of the best fiddle players I have ever heard. His other group (Jeremy Kittel Band) came to Columbia Friday for a concert. I was blown away. Below is a link of his arrangement of Hendrix's 'Hey Joe'. I will let the music do the rest of the talking for how incredible this guy is.

The choices we make

This video shows part of what keeps me from practicing my beloved melodic minor scales and tunes for the jazz-ensemble class as well as the tunes for the jams with my buddies outside of that and let alone logging onto this site for months. The mission of the job is to give 59x 45min interactive concerts for school kids presenting "percussion". Criteria for accepting this:
- I feel more valuable, if I work and I want to work.

NYC club report - L'Image

|
After missing the Chick and Gary show at the Blue Note this fall, I decided I had better get down to Iridium a few weeks ago to see L'Image (the reunion group featuring Mike Mainieri, David Spinozza, Steve Gadd, Tony Levin and Warren Bernhardt). I'm happy to report the group is better than ever, and out with some great new music.

Thank you all - updated

One year ago I was having in my mind to create a combo where the vibes would take an important place, with my dream of maybe in the future be able to play with 4 mallets…..
In January I subscribed to the site (took me one month and a half to understand how to use it ! :-)), and I started to work as much as possible during every minute of my spare time.

Ronnie Scott

I've just finished reading British Jazzer Ronnie Scott's book, Lets Join Hands And Contact The Living, its a great read, all about his life and his famous Jazz Club and some of the great musicians who played there. Well worth reading. I have also added a link of him playing with The Victor Feldman Trio, two amazing musicians, Scott was an immensely talented player and played with some of the greatest jazz musicians on the planet, so enjoy.
