Wow! After a long, long time, I finally got my 2nd CD finished and made.
It was recorded entirely in Paris, and mastered entirely in Paris by our
own Sakis. It is called, "Images of Movements thru Time and Space."
It is a bit difficult to categorize, as it has roots in jazz due to the
improvisation involved, yet it also has classical and avant garde roots.
There is more information about the CD, along with some mp3 samples on
my site at www.enchantedvibrations.net
I even got Gene Lennon involved in checking out my mixes early on. I have
some GREAT players joining me, including guitarist Michael Gregory. Check
it out.

Lou -
Congrats to you, the musicians, and Sakis for more great work. Can't
wait to get my cd in the mail.
If you're ever coming thru Maryland in your travels, come by to
compare your Lawler Committee with my '54 Committee. Also, I would
love to hear you jam on my Lawler flugelhorn.
Good luck with cd sales. Feel free to autograph mine!

The Steinerphone is a "midi" trumpet controller. It uses fingering similar
to the 3 valves of a trumpet that work by touch, with some other modifications.
It makes no sound of it's own and is attached to it's own synthesizer, which
in turn can also be linked or sent out to other synth modules. The nice
thing is I can play up to 8 octaves with it, and have quite a bit of control
over the sound. You don't vibrate your lips as you do in a trumpet mouthpiece
cup, you just blow into a rubber mouthpiece, which if you bite into it and
bend it a little will allow you to glissando up or down. You can also bend
notes, and use natural vibrato and use different types of attack. You can
also play chords with it. So it is a very expressive instrument. I NEVER
use it with trumpet patches. Don't like them, and I can play my own with
my regular trumpet, but I use it with sounds I find "interesting." It is
fun to be able to play another instrument that is familiar in the fingering
sense, yet so different in timber. I can play drums or piano or strings
or anything I want with it. I use it to compose sometimes too. A very
high tech instrument and no toy! The model I have has been discontinues
by Akai, but I believe there are newer models available if people are interested.
It also has a saxophone sister, which Michael Brecker used to play called
the EWI (Electronic Wind Instrument). Mine is also called the EVI (Electronic
Valve Instrument). Out of respect, I call it (and so do they) the Steinerphone
after Niles Steiner, it's inventor, who worked with Akai to have it produced.
Hope that helps.

Sounds like a cool piece of kit for a horn player to have.
Congrats on the new CD, Lou!

Flugelhorn! Man, it has been years since I played and had one of those!
Years ago, I had an early model Yamaha trumpet that was not so good, so
I chose a Yamaha flugelhorn to buy our of curiosity. Great horn! I got
so into the flugelhorn, I hardly ever played the trumpet. Then I stopped
playing for awhile, and when I came back, I realized it was the trumpet players
that I always liked, so I bought a new trumpet (another Yamaha. A YTR
6335S), which was a great horn, and I worked on getting the sound I wanted
perfected with that. Still don't have a flugelhorn, but they do sound
nice, and I would love to try yours some day. Hope to make it to the
next NYC gathering in 2 years. Wanted to come this year, but had complications
with time. Yours, and Steve's CD's are in the mail. Thanks for buying
them and I hope you like the music.

That's some deep shit, dude. Enjoyed listening to the samples. By the way,
since I developed Embochure Dystonia, I have been playing a Synthophone, sax
midi controller, designed by Martin Hurni, Switzerland. The possibilities
are really endless with the thing, limited only by the samples you can
trigger and your imagination. So are you triggering the synths, percussion
and basses with the Steinerphone. I hear a sax player in there, mostly in
the background. Like the Harmon mute, yeah.
Best,
Rich

Wow, I miss so much when I go away for a few days. Congratulations on the
new CD. I couldn't hear the vocals, and found it hard to dance to, but
other than that it was good. :) Nice lipping and valving.

Rich No, don't use the steinerphone for triggering. I usually come up
with an idea and put down the synth parts first, then record them into Paris
after I get the composition how I want it, then I record my trumpet and may
have other soloists come in to join me. I use the Steinerphone mostly as
an alternate solo instrument, or sometimes to compose. Yes, there was a
Sax player in there on some of the cuts. The samples were small, but he plays
a lot on some of the cuts of my new CD. You can hear and see him if you
go to my site and go to the concert page. There is a video from one of my
concerts there at www.enchantedvibrations.net

By the way Rich, glad to hear you found another instrument to express yourself
after that condition you have. I remember us talking about this a long
time ago.

You couldn't hear the vocals, because there is ONLY one on the very last track
of Images, and you only hear a few words of it at the end of the sample.
It is a short poem that the vocalist sang thru one time. For what it is
worth, I am the vocalist on my CD's. My trumpet is my voice. I work
very hard on my sound and voice every day.
My music leans heavily toward the abstract and avant garde because that is
where my passion lies. Even my listening is in those areas. Years ago,
I played Funk, and mainstream jazz, which had more regulated meter to it's
rhythm. Now days, I experiment with different rhythms, harmonies, and melodies.
There are many who can and do like to dance to my music, but I agree, it
was not created with the intention of causing peoples feet to want to pat,
or for most people to want to move their bodies to it.
One of the great things about music, is it reflects the essence of the composer
and performer of the music, and since we are all different in our experiences,
likes, and dislikes, it produces many different kinds of music. I believe
it is all valid and significant no matter how different it is. It is pretty
much a reflection of what is in that persons head and heart.
Thanks

I hope you know I was just teasing about vocals and danceability, like I
would care . . . being known myself for buried vocals and meter disruptions.
( I grew up worshipping Frank Zappa, and still mostly prefer his
instrumental stuff.)
So yeah, what you said. :) I like your voice. I can tell you work hard on
it.

Oppps! Sorry, I actually didn't know your were teasing, so I just tried
to explain what was going on with the music. I never know where people are
coming from with their observations on music, but I do know that more people
dislike and don't have an understanding or exposure to my style of music
than people that would actually enjoy it. So with that said, and given the
very commercial nature of the state of music nowdays, I just took you for
what you wrote. I didn't take it as anything negative, just for what it
was. See, there are more people than you think that would actually ask those
questions and truly mean it.
So, thanks for the compliment on my sound/voice.

I like it very well too, without understanding how you're using your
"voice". For me you're spreading feelings with your sound:-)
