Doug Robinson Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Here is the 58 minute set I just live broadcasted from Mexico last week--latin jazz, a lot of original stuff, non-traditional as you'll hear!

zephonic Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I had to get this off my chest, so I wrote a song about it. It's not the type of stuff I normally do, but I felt it needed to be said. If you like it, feel free to share. Thanks for listening.

ksoper Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Ken, that was fantastic. Bravo Thanks so much. This is what I was working on during the last zoom meeting. That reminded me of Wendy Carlos" work on Switched-On Bach. Thank you. I wasn't planning on recording this ala Carlos. The early test patches weren't even close to this. But I'm weak and succumbed to temptation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Robinson Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 My friend Fred Simon said something profound at the beginning of the pandemic, that suddenly the song "I Want to Hold Your Hand" had become the saddest song ever written.

David Emm Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 All voices and effects from the Moog One. This piece is probably better known as "The Emperor's Fanfare," arranged by legendary organist E. Power Biggs. Sixth Double Concerto, Second Movement, Antonio Soler (1729-1783) I echo the comparison to the style of Wendy Carlos, which I love. Its almost a separate realm of synthesis, so it was especially enjoyable to hear you evoke it so well with a Moog One. THERE's one of the missing pieces concerning its real voice. Added points for using a Biggs arrangement. Some marveled at The New York Dolls. I marveled at Biggs & Virgil Fox. That's our tribe for you!

Although this was a Casio themed project it reflects my style. [video:youtube] Pardon my double-like glitch, but hey, let it stand! It took a few replays to absorb, but that's a fine composition. I like the patch-go-round changes as a synth player, but the tension & release aspects are outstanding. It reminds me a bit of the solo synth-guitar works of Michael Brook, which are reserved showpieces that make you go "OH, so THAT's what it can do!" I enjoyed the heck out of the Emerson-sized Casio stack, too. There's a piece from every era there, yeesh!

Rusty Mike Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Like a lot of other musicians, our big band has become virtual. This is the latest composite video we've created. It's Chris Connolly's arrangement of Makin' Whoopee, which is a tenor feature. The growth experience for me has been with doing the audio mixing, along with the agony of making video recordings of myself. The featured player is the band leader's father. I can't get over his smooth tone. If silk made a sound, this would be it! [video:youtube] Quote . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in WAY over my head, but I almost learned to tread water. I was hoping to see if they needed me again this summer when the piano player went on vacation again, but most of the band is beyond senior citizen age AND they rehearse at a senior living center so even if I was comfortable with a group rehearsal (I'm not) they aren't doing it anyway.

Hi Joe, thanks for the kind words. Funny, because I feel in big band I get to hide a little bit behind the other instruments. Piano is generally there to hold the other people up and is not commonly featured. It helps a lot with getting your reading chops up! Once of the things I've found is that most piano charts are way over-written. Sparse playing is always better. You're competing with 16 other instruments (17 if there is a singer) and reading literally off the page is just too busy. The band is talking about resuming rehearsals in August. We have a few outdoor options, so we may start with that. We're also talking about continuing the virtual recordings. We've done three total so far and are starting a fourth tune. It's been a great learning experience and a lot of fun. Quote . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a great learning experience and a lot of fun. I felt that way too, but there are places where the piano gets featured such as the intros to some songs and things. They would say, "we're doing this song next" and I'd have to pull out that chart and try to sight read the intro or part when it came up! Eek. The gig, brief as it was, was pushing my sight reading and interpretation as I'd have to figure out what fit. You're right in that some charts had Too Many Notes for piano. But I was learning a ton and hoped to continue it. I'd love to get another big band gig at some point. Quote "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!
