A killer Stuff Smith solo
I think this was the first video I ever saw of Stuff playing. I remember being super excited to hear some things I was always looking for in a jazz violinist. Groove, grit and jazz melody.

It might be his most famous. I had to stop my day to listen again to that , I think it changed my life when I heard it !
🎻Avalon challenge📹
Hi all, We’ve been working hard on the tune Avalon this last month in the practise club. Post a video of you improvising over the tune and get some feedback and encouragement from the group! Use the backing track here! https://youtu.be/97k8jD9Bgd4?si=OLDCdx8RubuKPyyg Here’s my version!

I liked our very simple exercise to play fast on Avalon. Not that I’d do that on cello butI had got bored over slower Bossa tunes and took it into double time and was doing things using open strings and simple chords after listening to Emily Remmners solos …eg on how insensitive …I like it when you tackle things in a similar way to how I’d been thinking … but then also give new ideas ..
