Bill Evans: "The Distance Between Two Points"

[cubas33]

This is the beauty of internet. I´m in Argentina and I end up listening to this song, without the net I would have never found it. Congrats and keep it going.

Fantastic composition. Sounds modern and beautiful but not show-offy or guitary

Great job BIll! What a fantastic tune. I learned to play using your book "Banjo for Dummies" on a $150 banjo that I and my roommate had to share during college. I've just upgraded to a Recording King Bill Sullivan Tribute and have you to thank for getting me going on this wonderful instrument!

I would KILL for this tab. What an outstanding peice. Excellent work Mr. Evans.

Are you really looking for this tune? It's in the BanjoNewsletter May 2009 issue...I clicked on the link and it brought me here to YouTube

Learned it... well for the most part. I've only been playing for nearly a year, and I screwed some bits up... a few missed notes, screwed up part of the timing in part C, among other things. It's a bit of an odd tune to play... I like the banjo, like drums (which I also play) because as long as I'm hitting the hi hat at 1/8 notes, I can figure out the timing of everything else in relation to that. Your song didn't quite follow steady eighths... Hope I didn't massacre it.

Greetings! A tab of this tune was in the August issue of "Banjo Newsletter" magazine. Check it out! Sincerely, Bill

[instantpestering]

It's an wonderful tune Bill! Any chance of sharing the tabs with the world so that your tune can live on in our hands as well?

Hi Bill, I just want to say that your master class banjo DVD's on backup and others have been great for me.Your way of teaching is great and some day I hope to get to one of your seminars.

Hi Oscar, There is no tab available for this tune as of right now. It is available in a duet performance on my new CD "let's do something" with fiddler Megan Lynch however. Someday, I'll try and get around to publishing a tab book of a lot of my tunes - that's a big undertaking and I find that I don't have a lot of time for extra projects these days! Sincerely, Bill

[OSCAR82AA]

Bill, Where is the tab for this ?

[friendswithlighters]

Brilliant. Beautiful song, beautifully played. Can I just ask what tuning you are using in this?

[J0NJ022]

Wow! How long, I wonder, before someone makes a banjo concerto based on this kind of music (The London Symphony Orchestra with Bill Evans - wouldn't that be cool?)

[brianbauer78]

nice, bill!

and it was great to meet you at the banjo camp midwest this year!

PS: i just bought banjo for dummies today!

happy picking!

[josefgiven]

Really, really good.

[banjobum]

Wonderful tune Bill. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[bigbadbucksnort]

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

[banjobilly32]

I came across this by accident. How come something as great as this is not identified, Just mumbo jumbo in the descriptions? Same with some of your other postings?

[banjophobic]

Beautifully crafted tune Bill and superbly played too. Thanks for posting this.
