Thanks. That concert felt good indeed, and it was a special occassion.
I am still not sure, how this forum works. Is everyone reading what I am replying to you ?
If so: I am sticking around and if there are specific questions I'll be glad to answer them.
Ingrid Sertso and I visited with Ornette, for two reasons: his birthday, and also to play for him a brand new recording of Ingrid's of
"Lonely Woman", for which she also wrote new lyrics. I arranged it with some strings and vibes. Ornette loved it and approved it for dissemination. So it will soon be around, notably on the web pages of www.creativemusicstudio.org and www.myspace.com/IngridSertso.
There are some questions concerning "When Fortune Smiles" ? It actually was a sessions that engineer Dave Baker called to try a new studio, which was on an upper floor somewhere in downtown Manhattan. Later in the evening the downstairs neighbor complained, so this is why part of it is without drums.
Now, again, I am not sure, that this posts for all participants to read. If so, everything is cool. If not, please let me know how this "quote" and "replay" buttons work. And please relate the above to everyone.
As for performance: Ingrid Sertso and I are very interested to perform wherever possible. We always go to Europe to tour and hardly get a chance to perform in this country.
Thanks, with music always,
