The EIS Trio

Tonight's the night!
My trio -- @TheEISTrio -- performs our hit holiday show, "Beethoven's A Christmas Carol".
Dickens' classic tale, but with Beethoven as Scrooge. Not a stretch, honestly!
8pm at @HOTC_Worship in Anoka.
We'd love to see you!

Your friendly neighborhood trio on Sunday, playing a wedding reception (in a barn!) with some Brahms, Mendelssohn, Poulenc, Brubeck, Artie Shaw, The Carpenters by request, and Ellington.

She’s been called “the biggest revelation,” and is known for her approach to the Great American Songbook. Read our Q&A with Maud Hixson and let her serenade you. - https://t.co/xKfMYwTc8o

My trio -- the @TheEISTrio -- has played many a show at the @BryantLakeBowl theater. (The drone dips into the theater at the 1:08 mark.) If we're lucky maybe we can all see each other there again soon. 💪💪💪

And please: Check out this amazing drone-shot video.

Our holiday shows may have been cancelled, but here's a nice rehearsal recording we made of Vince Guaraldi's "Christmas Time Is Here," before everything got shut down.

And here we are back in 2019 doing Brubeck's "Blue Rondo a la Turk" in that "The Jazz Effect" show. And it's just the music; you don't have to hear me intro it!

If you're a day late for Dave Brubeck's 100th bday - even if you're not! - here's a great thread from @tedgioia. Ted's book West Coast Jazz was a major resource for the Brubeck section of @TheEISTrio's "The Jazz Effect" show. Great book; great writer. Enjoy the thread.

Name a more iconic trio than The EIS Trio! You ca-- . . . uh . . . oh dang.

[Kevin Stahl @kstahl]

Wouldn't exactly call this normal... but hey, @NormalComposers how about Paul Whiteman, Babe Ruth, and John Phillip Sousa at the gym?

July 4th mini-concert!

Benny Goodman is a perfect archetype for the US: poor immigrant parents; went from extreme poverty to great success w/a fearsome work ethic; and, frankly, could have been a little nicer.

Here is his "Slipped Disc." Stay safe!

Practiced setting up a livestream today, and yes that is a camera rubber-banded to a vacuum cleaner. 👍

🚨Rehearsal-crashing Cat Alert!🚨

Hello!, Bom Dia!, and so on.

For today's #MiniRecital we've got #Grieg, #ChamberMusic, and -- most importantly -- a rehearsal-crashing cat. Watch out for that last fortissimo, kitty!
