Hi everyone, Here's a video of a recent composition. Some different harmonies than I've use before. Hope you enjoy it:

Love Songs on the Stick. I always enjoy them. (I have one for Kate). Opening statement@ 1:10 (w/ a little porkpie). Beautiful, Greg.

I've been wondering when we were going to hear something from you ... it felt like it couldn't be long. Gorgeous. Lovely tune, some changes to raise an eyebrow here and there (in a good way), a really evocative piece. Bravo, sir.

So beautiful, Greg! Something about it reminds me a little of Bianco who first introduced me to the Stick, and something else reminds me of Emmett.
You've got the Stick tone to bring peace to the world! Sounds great.

Thanks, everyone, for checking it out, and for all the reactions.
There's definitely some Mingus among us....

That lyrical bit in the middle with the bass side was a master class on how to bring color and passion to the left hand.
Another video where we get to watch Greg showcase just exactly what this instrument is capable of.
(said throwing Chapman Stick out window) Thanks Greg!
But for real, thanks Greg. Beautifully written and played with passion.

But for real, thanks Greg. Beautifully written and played with passion. Thanks, Gene! That cello voice in the left hand is a such a wonderfully lyrical tool. The 1-2-1-3 diatonic fingering makes those kinds of runs so much easier and consistent than trying to play them 1-2-3-4. Make it sing!
