Good morning, Nostr ☀️ Hope you’re having a great day. This week I’m on viola duty, getting my chops back in shape for a recording session on Saturday. This morning I started with a little Bach, the Prelude from the C major Cello Suite, just as a warm-up. Then I drifted into some improvising in C minor, but still carrying that Bach energy with me. I recorded a little bit of that improv session and you’ll hear those Bach inspired descending scales and flowing lines, but filtered through my own semi-fiddly, semi-jazzy style on viola. It’s funny…. when I listened back, I realized it sounds nothing like Bach, and yet I can feel his influence everywhere in it! Somehow it’s all connected on a subconscious level. Hope you enjoy, and have a great day. #musicstr

Good evening, Nostr 🌙 In case you missed it earlier… I’m back on viola this week, warming up for a recording session on Saturday. This morning I shared a little improv inspired by Bach’s C major cello suite, same key (in minor), but a totally different vibe. Hope you enjoy if you haven’t seen it yet! View quoted note →
