String Musing in A minor (with Betsy Tinney)

Liner Notes

Cello storyteller Betsy Tinney has been my dear friend and musical collaborator since 2003. She taught me how to improvise, which I never would have tried as a classically-trained violinist. Now it's my favorite thing to do and the foundation of one of the bands we're in together (sometimes with Geli Wuerzner, sometimes with Alexander James Adams) called Ménage à Trio.

At Vixy & Tony rehearsal earlier this week, I asked Betsy to record a quick improv with me for my FAWM page. It started out meandering and unstructured, as they usually do, and then settled into a lilting 3/4. I especially love how the ending pattern came together in octave unison. Enjoy!
