Always a pleasure to share the musical airwaves with Mr. Dave Liebman. It's a little weird playing with someone when you just want to stop playing, listen and enjoy. But it was wonderful hearing Dave respond to some of my preparations. I didn't give him any idea of what I was going to do just to see how he'd react. And, of course, all of his musical responses were perfect. There's even a second set of this that may be even better. Not sure when I'll release it, but I'm sure it will be sometime soon.
This blog is a space for sharing my reflections on music, creativity, life, and politics—a way to connect with fellow saxophonists, musicians, and thoughtful explorers of life. Join me as we delve into the art of sound, the nuances of expression, and the broader world around us.
