JEFF TITUS & MICHAEL MANRING - CHAVA'S SONG (Michael Hedges)

For more on Jeff Titus and his music please visit http://www.jefftitus.com or http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/titusjeff

This video was captured July 11th, 2008 at 142Throckmorton Theatre in Mill Valley, CA during the Wood Dragon Tour concert. (http://142throckmortontheatre.com)

Chava's Song was written by Michael Hedges and included as a harp guitar / piano duet on his album "Taproot". According to Manring, he and Hedges had at one time worked this out as a duet for harp guitar and electric bass (prior to its recording as part of Taproot). It is always an honor to play live with Michael Manring and even more of an honor to play this hauntingly beautiful piece from Michael Hedges together.

Stay tuned for more performances from this and other concerts. I hope you enjoyed this one! More to come. -J

@Rael0505 Hey brother... thank you so much for your comments. Michael and I will have other music we play together to share in the future, I'm sure. Last weekend we recorded a tune for my upcoming release that will be really fun to play live. :) Keep jammin!

Absolutely amazing man, after going through nearly every Hedges video I could find, this was a real jem to hear this version with Manring.

Keep up the excellent work.

[jazroc]

What a great compliment! I hope that we will one day see a video of Michael himself playing this. :)

BTW, I'm playing live with Alex de Grassi and Manring this summer if you're in CA and have a chance to see one of the shows. Should be special!

does Jeff's harp guitar have sympathetic strings? I can hear a really interesting drone throughout the piece
