Hi Good Folks, I just got back from L.A. rehearsing with my string
consort group and we're thrilled to play a show this Saturday at the
Schulman Auditorium in Carlsbad. The group consists of four women
string players (2 violins, viola, and cello) plus a jazz rhythm section
(guitar, bass, and drums). Together we have a sound that I'd say is
mostly jazz but also includes elements of classical music too. Our
repertoire consists of pieces that I've composed along with my
arrangements of Bach and Dave Brubeck and a few Chick Corea
compositions. For this show I've just completed an arrangement of
Brubeck's classic song "The Duke" and we'll play it on Saturday for the
first time. Stoke! Click here if you want to gather more info about our
group including photos and audio clips.
Also, this will be my last gig for a spell, as I'm getting ready to
leave for Europe for all of July. I'll miss you and I'm thinking I'll
take some photos and gather some good stories. If I can fit it in, I'll
send you updates from the road. all the best, Peter
