Texas Hoedown for vibes and tenor saxophone
Peter Weniger and I did a reading of the piece, originally for solo vibraphone. Basically Peter plays the melody and I try to leave out certain phrases that were written in the solo version to avoid too much information. This varies from the written solo because we deviate from the written out solo and improvise a solo together. It's not perfect, which I kind of like but I dig the feel.

"Tango Choc" by Astor Piazzolla
Way too hot to work in the yard today so I'm in the house playing some vibes. I was running through an Astor Piazzolla book featuring his compositions and came across this song titled "Tango Choc". I'm basically sight reading through this. The song plays itself. Beautiful melody and harmony. I love Astor Piazzolla's music.
