New video on the channel! Why we ask the wrong questions about music theory, and why I dislike the phrase “ear training.” Many thanks to @jotapsax for introducing me to the phrase “musical perception,” which made all of these thoughts much clearer for me. Link in my tree!

RYSHGANG VOL. 1 OUT NOW!

New video on the channel! A quick look into my pre-gig warmup — how I get to make friends with pianos quickly, or at least understand what I’m dealing with on any given night. Grateful for the opportunity to have had a week of safe, distanced rehearsals with other humans in a great theatre with a good piano. Link, as always, where it should be.

NEW RELEASE ANNOUNCEMENT! RYSHGANG VOL 1 out next Friday!

I’m starting a new series of tutorial videos on the YT channel! The first one is about HOW to practice — not WHAT to practice. I see a lot of recurring patterns in my students, some that have been made more obvious over video this past year. The full length video has four tips to optimize your practice time. This lesson is not genre or instrument specific, so share it with your friends and students! Link, as always... well, you know where.

Sexta é dia do baile, né?

NEW SINGLE WITH @damianbir AVAILABLE ON BANDCAMP NOW!

Saxophonist @damianbir and I have very similar tastes, in coffee and in music. Over the past year we bonded (via Zoom and Soundjack) over our love for @ecm_records from the 1970s, especially those by Egberto Gismonti and Keith Jarrett. Passing ideas back and forth, here is our salute to that sound. “Nem existe pra chamar” will be out tomorrow on Bandcamp and YouTube.

This one really hurts. Chick Corea was, and remains, one of the biggest influences on my playing and composing. “Now He Sings, Now He Sobs” blew my ears open and changed my playing. The Airto/Joe Farrell edition of Return to Forever and the duos with Gary Burton are so important to my harmonic language as a composer. The duo with Bobby McFerrin is the hallmark of deep listening and pure joy. I have a soft spot for the Origin sextet, too. I’m forever grateful to have seen him live many times and to have even interviewed him once. Thank you for everything, maestro.
