TOTM - Bebop- Building a Bebop Gestural Vocabulary
Here's a lesson on one of my favorite aspects of studying bebop. I love playing bebop, but this is the stuff that I take away from it that infuses everything else I play.

I'm a great fan of Marco. He is really really good ! And not known enough to my point of view. Here is a new demonstration of his talent.
Enjoy !
Tonight I played with my trio, and suddenly during one tune a kind of trap happened : I had a problem during the whole tune with the damper bar's screw, and at the end our drummer had a problem with his bass drum pedal, then we screwed up some passages, but at the same time the energy was good, and there was a fair amount of people dancing on our music. Finally we somehow managed to play and maintain the dancing energy, but I don't know exactly how we did. I just wanted to share this little experience, showing the reality of live music as it can sometimes be... ;-)
Listen to Wolfgang Schlüter!!! (1988)
Solo starts at 2:50 min.
Unbelievable timing and phrasing!
Have fun!

So as you guys know, I just moved to Philly! It was a rough start getting here (the moving company I used sucked @$$), but all is great now! I love this city, I am so happy to be here. I had dinner with Tony tonight and I told him this story. He told me that I had to share it with you guys. I laughed and agreed it would be a good one to let everyone in on. This is not made up, this really happened to me...
Been working on this for a few weeks so here is my first half decent post on it. Tried to keep it simple and short 2 choruses, Heard a slower version on you tube and based it on this feel Apologies for the quality, I tried uploading in WAV format which is much cleaner but kept rejecting it. (Tony??)

Recorded with both of us in the same room. I think the sound is cool.
Hey guys!
This is another tune we played last 9th juny, in a duo performance.
Si tu vois ma mère is a Sidney Bechet's classic. I think it's a beautiful tune.
Check it out and tell me what do you think!
