"Within a Page" is one of my favorites. I wrote it while working on a page out of my sight reading book called "Shapes and Patterns of Music". The title comes after spending weeks on a single line trying to develop it into a song. When I…

So I took my usual daily walk, my meager attempt at exercising and a chance to listen to music. Classical music is the most difficult to listen to on the streets of Philly. Those damn trucks. And then the cab drivers and their horns. I…

So, we're starting a trumpet site, just like this site featuring Joe Magnarelli and Matt Gallagher. That means I'm hanging out with trumpet players these days. That's cool when you hang out with trumpet or sax players, because you're…

I remember joe talking to us about Vincent Herring. You guys remember that. I do think it's hard to keep up with players now, there are not as many clubs any more. You've probably heard me talk about Pandora on the site. I wanted to…

Here’s a clip of Philippe and me playing Bronislau Kaper’s composition Invitation. It’s an unusual standard in terms of the melody, harmony and form. The A section has long durations of minor 6th chords which allow for some nice, open type…

Here’s a version of Philippe and me playing Henry Mancini’s The Days of Wine and Roses. It’s a fun tune to solo on since the changes are so interesting to maneuver through. We play the first part of the tune in F and then modulate in the…

This tune, "Four in Ony", by Monk, is from an older album of mine, "Of the Wind's Eye", on Enja records, not released on CD. I thought this would be an interesting addition to Tony's Practice tape and video of "Four in One" The other…
