Thanks for the friend request. You're sounding great (of course!) I hope the show at the NAC is going well. Give a shout next time you're in town. It would be nice to meet face to face and slug down a latte or two :-)
Hello there! Thanks for finding me. May I say, you sound great! I'd like to invite you to download my new album "Open Cages" for free at www.umor-rex.com Hope we get to jam someday, best regards from Mexico.
For those of you that don't know, Amy is an AMAZING trumpet player - she's my favorite trumpet player in the world and will shortly be listed among my top friends! I'm also going to be writing a substantial amount of new music for her ready for a CD devoted entirely to her playing. The music will consist of Amy's trumpet playing surrounded by digital sample sound environments and electro-acoustic treatments. The whole project will be a tour de force showcase of her unique abilities.
Wow! I've never had the chance to be the first comment on someone's page. Thanks Amy! You sound awesome!! I'm getting my chops together so I can hang when we finally get to play some duets. Hope New Hampshire is going well!
