Happy one year @ava.franchi !!! You made my last year incredibly special, and I’ve had so much fun with you. You’re a wonderful person who sees the world in a beautiful way and you’ve made my life brighter cause you’re in it. I can’t wait to go on many more adventures with you :) I love you ❤️
Excerpt from the epic alto sax solo from Mario Kart 8’s Dolphin Shoals- watch how the number on the display goes ballistic as I murder the pitch wheel on the altissimo
Had another audition, this time at UCLA’s Herb Alpert School of Music for Global Jazz Studies! Such a privilege to perform, the school is amazing and the campus is gorgeous. Ran into @andrewmoonshine and he gave me a tour, thank you so much!! Tunes are Steps and Round Midnight
Just got back from USC Thornton to audition for their jazz program! I’m so honored to be able to have this opportunity, I was blown away by the school. I couldn’t film my actual audition so here are two of the tunes I played: Blue Bossa and Lush Life. Thank you so much @producer7 and @katotanto for backing me up on bass and drums!
A Remark You Made- Joe Zawinul
I first heard this tune on Terje Gewelt’s album Interplay, featuring Christian Jacob. Something about the bass and piano duet really resonated with me.
