Moment's Notice (John Coltrane)
I've been in love with John Coltrane since childhood. Heck, he's from Philly! It started with My Favorite Things on that soprano - McCoy's piano rhythm ECT.
My first album on Muse Records I included Moment's Notice. It's challenging because of that deceptive cadence. I have no idea how I came up with the crazy 11/4 (or 3,3,3,2) ending! but all the bands/people I played with over the years like it so it became part of my arrangement. This up tempo duo version with Bob Meashey was sure a lot of fun. I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed playing it.

Footprints (Wayne Shorter)
มุมมอง 1272 ปีที่แล้ว
What a great title "Footprints". Every artist would love to think they are leaving their footprints behind. This simple pseudo minor blues is always a favorite to play by jazz musicians at all levels. In this setting with Bob Meashey and I lends itself to much free exploration and metric modulations. An interactive duo setting is a great way to practice utilizing space and dynamics. Steve Giordano
All the Things You Are (Jerome Kern)

This is an excerpt from a little church concert I did with my great friend Bob Meashey. It's always an honor to make music with this wonderful musician. This Jerome Kern composition has been played, arranged, rearranged, transposed, recorded, by thousands (maybe millions) of jazz musicians over the years. It's one of those tunes that just evokes counterpoint improvisation an interaction. I must...
7th Planet (Steve Giordano/Bob Meashey)

This is an excerpt from a little church concert I did with my great friend Bob Meashey. It's always an honor to make music with this wonderful musician. This composition "The 7th Planet" was a piece I wrote in the 90s when I just bought my Ibanez steel string acoustic, which I no longer have. I was sitting on the couch and found this interesting tertian relationship C# F with open A string. The...

This is my special reharmonization of this spirited Christmas song. Although I have recorded this on my Jazz Christmas CD recording in the 90s, I wanted to do a special duet with Stephen DiBonaventura on banjo. The solo section is a custom designed and doesn't adhere to the form.

Another piece that I always enjoyed creating over. Of course like many of these sessions, we didn't plan arrangements but we all know the material. These house concerts were just like gigs in that we just interacted on tunes we know. The only difference the setting is intimate, people listen, we communicate not by compromise but my sharing. Some of my most fulfilling jazz experiences where hous...

Steve Giordano House Concert Series: E.V.I. Quartet: Steve Giordano - guitar John Swana - E.V.I./Trombone John Mosemann - drums Lucas Brown - organ One of the most fulfilling playing experiences is playing house concerts. A small, attentive audience, around 25 people. We were able to talk about the music and each piece. No one talks. Everyone listens. The way this art form should be heard. SG

Is there any relation to the Steve Giordano from the famed Speed Tape films/Nomadic Aviation group?
Yep he's my son.😊
Few people can recognize the qualities of a diamond... same with this song.

Nice
Damn, you guys! Just crazy awesome. Endless ideas and improvised harmonic creativity coupled with constantly shifting rhythms. Steve, you are one of those guys who has constantly and, unintentionally, evaded the radar. Ralph Towner comes to mind as another monster talent whom the world at large ignores. Doesn't matter - you know and players know. Just double dang dog, man. Be well.
Trippy!
this is TOO GOOD
Is there a view count that numbers how often I've watched this? I learn something new each time.
Didn't know this guy. Very nice.
Thanks for suggesting the Symbiosis Syndicate music videos (several years ago). I've just gotten a computer after 5 years without... this is a wonderful place to start again! Best regards from Montreal. ~Glenn
Great concept... the meeting of two worlds. Wonderful way to view and review this musical information. Thanks!
Thanks Glen. It's funny because I was just talking about this to a student the other day. I never got many hits but I feel it's important for all musicians and composers. Steve Giordano
Yours are some of the best educational videos for music I've come across. Revisiting them after a couple of years.... now that my computer's working again. Thanks so much for keeping this material available.
Wow...
Fantastic!! The quietness, the spaces, the song under total control. So beautiful to hear this gentle mastery. Thanks for uploading these incredible performances.
Lovely wonderful and clean Jazz. Nicely done guys
Great tune, great playing!!! 🙏Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful piece of music. Thanks for sharing ...I'll be sharing it with some folks who I know will appreciate it. Although there's no improv section it seems like a great piece to improvise with. Maybe in another version? 🙏
Hi Glenn, I'm glad you are enjoying my work. An artist can ask for no more. "The 7th Planet" is more of an impressionistic piece of music. Over the years I have messed with improvisation but not verbatim over the form. What seemed to work best is interactive free improvisation that I've done in certain situations that connect back to the form somehow 🙂. If you send me your email I'll track down one of those versions and send it to you. Steve
awesome, Steve!
👍 nice
Beautiful church! Where is that? Nice sound from the both of you 👍
More creative than ever Steve , It is always so inspiring to listen to your beautiful playing .. This trio is unique and made me aware of the sonic possibilities of the EWI ..The interplay and blend between all three of you is heaven .
Thanks Pascal. It's not perfect music but in my book, Jazz is a striving for perfection, rather them staying "safe". :)
Really great. Exquisite!
Thanks. The glasses were from eye surgery by the way. :))
I have enjoyed your playing for quite a while, Sir, and I find it ever enlightening.
And I appreciate that. Having people getting something makes this art of jazz meaningful to me.
@@jzguru1 You are very welcome.
A most Beautiful rendition of "Distant Trains"! Steve Giordano -guitar; John Swana -EVI; and Bob Meashey -trumpet, are Magical Together.
Great, enjoyed every note, a happy new year and hopefully a better 2022, greetings Vic.
Thanks Vic, same to you
Man... so good to see new content from you! Great reharm! Just wanted to thank you, I learned so much from your old educational videos. Cheers from Italy.
Awesome, thank you!
Your son's videos brought me here. Very cool!
Love you Steve!
Nice!!
Weren't you in San Francisco at Real Guitars the city's oldest Vintage Guitar Shop? Some time ago, i think, and you visited Vintage shop in Orange County? I used to live San Juan Capistrano, a busker, and SF since 1984, knew Real Guitars before it was Real Guitars, Chris and Ben worked at a guitar shop on Ellis Street, then opened Real Guitars 1986? I bought guitar from them on Ellis Street. 1984. I am old senile 73 in San Fran-sister, like a Tran-sister radio, Mexican transistor Radio. I have a fetish for Hollow Body Guitars, based upon the principals set by G. Benson 'Depth of Resonatation" needs hollow body.
@@jzguru1 Okay, there was a collector who Loved those Guitars you use, and I was filming on them Recorder things On Bicycle up Market Street toReal Guitars where they had onne a them Jazz Guitars like yours. He was frim either Germany ot Swizerlanda...never mind, I just absolutely Groove on your Technoque you are a One Uv A Kind, I make mistakes ahhh- I am 73 Years and SEnile. Being Senile Means Often one is Delusional and MIS remembers stuff, I mean like Dude"" just because I ain't dead is I have 10 Guitars. Epiphone xPre-Jor Pass, 3 Gibsons, a The Cosey, a Jazwear Fender, 3 ES 335,s my 3 Manufractoers, Gibson ES 335 Studio NO F HOLES made Memphis 2002 ot so, however I am too feeble to go out a Busking especial with ""The Covilids" that has killed 50+ people in my Apartment Building this year-since Lanuary, people decided that Bidem Was Lying and threw off masks and act like fools, now the DEAD! 3 People NEXT DOORS and CRASS THE HALL 3 Dead Neighbours COXID19 50 Dead in Building 4 Floors. Because the were REPUBLICANS and their FANOUS LAST WORDS """BIDEN LIED""" Now DEAD MEN.

love your playing steve can you please post more vids THANKS
Thank you very much for this top lesson. I was singing much of Chet bakers solos and used it to transcribe and improvise for myself. This is a sign that this is the right way to make musical sense. Greetings and thank you again
Thank you for your feedback. Feel free to contact me for any musical advice.
Steve Giordano thank you for generous offer, I have ordered at mike music a few of your videos, that wil keep me busy Have you an order of what video I should watch/learn first , scatting first I think . Greetings from holland
