Rico again clap
I really enjoyed listening and watching your enthralled enthusiasm while performing Bravo....that said my only minor criticism is again the "Brass Section swipes" eg:@ 2:06,2:10, etc,. which is something a Brass section never does.I'm a stickler for playing instruments within their capacity to show realism.
Keep 'em coming Genos sounding terriffic.

Outstanding my friend! You sure make that Genos shine.
Don't pay attention to DNJ, he just posted a demo where the sax player didn't take a breath for two minutes! smile
Our keyboards are not subject to the limitations of "ordinary" musicians, and sometimes we get carried away improvising. I know I often do.
I enjoyed this a lot!

Legendary saxophonist (and middle-aged Justin Guarini) Kenny G set a record in 1997 for holding an E-Flat for over 45 minutes. To accomplish this, he used a technique called Circular Breathing, which keeps a steady stream of air flowing through the saxophone even as the player breathes.


Had to be a really boring concert!! eek

Nice song and playing Rico , but why do you call it a improvisation ?
you play with a Midi file , is not so much to improvise on it ?

Impuls cool

He can not play without midifiles... crazy
And then he thinks we don't see and hear it... confused

I think, one day he will come to an orgasm when playing his keyboard...
Never seen somebody playing with such silly gestures... laugh laugh laugh

Hey Riccy... why don't you send your video's to "America's funniest home video's" ?
I bet you win the first price... laugh laugh laugh

Rico never hides the fact that he is playing over a midi file ... In fact, he often gives credit to the person who created the file ...
And as for his "silly gestures", no doubt they just come from his exuberance for playing ...

Play on, Rico ... You have a lot of fans on this board ...

Not sure about midi files in Ricco's performance - so what? A lot on this forum use this method.

What is interesting though is the notion that Ricco might be overboard in his joy - so what? Isn't this what music is supposed to do to us?

When practice/performances become 'emotional', it is the biggest joy one can have, IMO smile

Watch Bill Evans: He looks like he's having a junkie experience through his playing smile

To me, that is one of Riccos strongest assets. The joy and enthusiasm is contagious.

Let’s understand the word improvise. The leg on my wooden table needs replacement – I replaced it with a metal one – I improvised.

What does a midi file have to do with improvising? You play the midi file and then play whatever you wish. If you change the melody and add little brown jug for a measure and then go back to the melody –
you just improvised.

Rico great job I enjoy your music, John C.

My Friends thank you so much for @ll your kind comments
I have been very very bussy because i am rebuilding my house
I am very very grateful for @ll the kind comments

Only 2 people that realy dont get it because impro has nothing
to do with midi !!!!

And Ketron user if you try to downgrade someone your at the wrong adress lol realy and then that remark he thinks they dont see it you made me realy laugh !!

Bruno said it @ll and i totaly agree with that because thats exactly the way i think to !
Some people should not talk about music if they dont know what they are talking about music is about your heart and feelings nothing more and certainly not about who is being best !! or how it should be or blah blah blah !!!!! :)))))

Love you @ll just do what ever you want and feel that my friends gives the best results in live Just Follow your Heart !

Greetings Rico wave
