Hey guys, this is my first upload of myself playing.
This was taken from La Fiesta by Chick Corea, played by me and the high school jazz band. Please don't stalk me 0.o
The tickets were 10$ to get in, half of which went to breast cancer research. Let me just say, I'm an avid supporter of cancer research, I got all pink'd up (hence the getup of myself and those around me). Also, its to kick off our trip to Chicago, which is a week from today. Were competing in the heritage festival. (Though me and the out of tune trumpet player don't have a solo there)
Solo is improvised. I just got cues when to start and stop. You'll notice in the second solo I was cut off by the one out of tune/key horn player... oh well.
This is basically what a bunch of 14-18 year olds put together with a few months of practice.
From last year:
Buddy Rich's Channel One Suite (me on the Gretsch Setzer Signature):
Vehicle by Ides of March (I'm in the back, barely see-able. Or hearable):
Sweet Dreams (Ballad):
Though one thing I wish I had, is footage of the pissing contest between me, the teacher, and the two saxophonists on this song in rehearsal. I played poorly there, but they were phenomonal and we were all blazing through scales and arpeggios and such. Wow I love music ^_^
Last Note: Someone was video taping the concert, I'll see if I can get the footage of the whole thing, and not just La Fiesta.
Thanks,
Kris
