The Flutesonic Orchestra premieres new orchestrations at this concert of the Greystone Mansion Series. Enjoy what the string bass I’m playing brings to this ensemble of fine musicians as we bring a little bit of Jazz into the classical world. Our recording includes a Fred Selden arrangement of Bobby Timmons “Moanin'”.
Live broadcast on KUSC from 6-7 p.m. on August 16 as we feature our world class soloist David Shostac at the Bing Theater LACMA.
Recording at USC. CD’s available at the concert.
Flutes of all sizes combine with a bass clarinet, string bass (me!) and sometimes harpsichord or piano.
Attend the concert if you can. It’s free admission. Enjoy hearing the podcast broadcasting live and downloadable from KUSC.
At the Husdson Loft in DTLA we celebrate a wedding. One forward thinking bride loved my sound so much she requested me for her festivities before the full live band came on to really keep the party going. We had a wonderful time.
I love playing this song by Duke Ellington. I recorded it for Askew Too, it got radio play.
Yes this month, on the 25th to be exact, I get to complete one more trip around the sun as I ride on this terra firma we call Earth. Yeah for me and my wonderful girlfriends Sylvia Callender, Sally Peterson and Julie Bransky who are maybe 1 or 2 days away from me on a similar ride. Also a shout out to Michael Ankey another 7/26/b-day…We are making it!
I would love to invite my friends and fans to help me get this party started by visiting me at one of the 3 public gigs that are scheduled for that week end. Friday the 24th with Marguaret Love and the Lovettes at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles in Long Beach, 9pm-1 am.
