Midi Files to solo over .... - 06/19/07 06:47 PM
Hey gang! I started playing my woodwinds again when I started teaching, and i got SO hooked - I decided to incorporate them into my solo act. I just started playing Tenor Sax, and I looked all over for a good midi file for Europa .... but to no avail. Then it hit me - duh! Record the trax myself! The Yamaha sequencer is a BREEZE to operate...lets me start/stop the drums, change presets in real time, etc.
So I played the chord track live, and now, I have a beautiful arrangement of Europa ala Gato Barbieri!
So simple, yet so elusive !
I feel silly - not trying to record it first! If I ever record it - I'll post the arrangement, but I'm still working on the sax solo !
