Some ideas for things to do while we are all huddled up in our homes because of the Corona Virus. It's also for after all this is over as well. It's using Play alongs and Playlists to keep tunes in your head!
French classical music fits great to impro.
Since I have to stay home except for a bit of shopping and walks around the beautiful park in my neighborhood I decided to record something each day of Corona house arrest. I'm starting today. This is a blues with the left hand doing "four on the floor". Hope you like it.

"Bud Powell" by Chick Corea - revisiting and working on this tricky composition by Chick.
Walt Dickerson's daughter, Liz, is a friend of mine. When we first met, we were talking about him and I wrongly assumed that the tune Elizabeth was written for her; it was not... he wrote it for his wife (Liz's mother). Liz also told me that day that her favorite recording of all the ones her dad did was not Elizabeth, but rather one called Bacon and Eggs.
