Arrangement of Diamond Dust, by Bernie Holland, inspired by the late great Jeff Beck’s version on his album Blow by Blow (1975). Instruments: Bösendorfer 225 piano, Logic Pro’s modeled electric piano, sampled acoustic guitar, bass, drummer.
Improvised intro to As I Am, As I Dream to Be (which I wrote in 1989), exploring my new 1990 Bösendorfer 225. Live-streamed on Facebook.
Multi-layered improvisation using Logic Pro’s sound library, Sculpture, Alchemy, Moog Model 15.
This was originally written and recorded as a piano/synthesizer duet in 1980. In this remake, I tried to stay close to the sound and spirit of the original instrumentation while adding drums and bass.
Multi-layered improv, using Minimoog Voyager, Moog Model 15 software synth, and Kawai baby grand.
Multi-layered improvisation with Animoog (iPad app), Moog Model 15 software synth, and Minimoog Voyager.

Michael Rosen and I co-composed this in 1983.
My first jazz instrumental, Through The Blue, begun 13 Nov 1977. Rusty, but fun to revisit on its 43rd birthday.
