Videos and/or recordings of live performances
By all accounts, last month’s Music at Noon show in Sacramento was a big success:
the audience cheered, the show host, Brad, seemed very happy (He actually said
our show was “the most diverse” show he had ever had there!), and I pulled off
three challenging classical pieces as well as doing a bunch of original music
and even some standards, joined by singer Danielle Wachowski and flutist
Caleb Hathaway.
A few years ago I completed a collection of piano pieces called “Waterfall: Original Piano Music.” The front runner of the collection was a piece called “Winter Glass,” which people repeatedly noticed and talked about, and which I also performed frequently at my shows. In fact, the piece almost made it into an independent movie, and though that never came through I still see the potential for this little piece to do more things. Last year a band I was playing with offered to play this song as a piano rock performance (or “rockified”), which up until then had only been done as a solo piano piece. I was excited by the idea, and we did one performance of it which fortunately I recorded.
This is a live performance of me playing a piece I wrote a little while ago. Live performance in Oakland, CA.
This is a video from a show I did last May for the Music at Noon (“M.A.N.”) concerts at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Sacramento, CA. Special thanks to Brad Slocum for his fine video work for this performance and for being the founder and organizer of this great Sacramento weekly event. More at http://www.westminsac.org/music-noon
