Taken from a "cocktail hour" setting at a retirement community near Wilmington, De. Recorded 1/3/07. Unlike a concert setting, there is, at times, significant background noise/chatter here. The gig is what the gig is.
I am often asked, in settings like this, about my "arrangements". Of course, it's all improvised, which is, on occasion, difficult to get across (sometimes people get "stuck" on the idea that this kind of playing is memorized). For a look into my "thinking" (if you play piano yourself, and you really want to go there - into my head) -

Thank you! Look for new posts - starting with my solo piano set at the Mammoth festival - beginning tomorrow. Though I've had a lull in posting the last couple of weeks (seems like I have several "full plates"), it's encouraging to see you "pop up" here nonetheless. Thanks again. I'll have info posted soon on our trip to Ill. in October.
