St. Thomas with "jazz" recorder and bass guitar (Sonny Rollins)

I bet most of you readers have already seen this video:



My 2 cents: this player - Mits Marton - has a great swing and does perform a beautiful improvisation. On the other side his sound, his articulation, his intonation on the instrument - in a word: his recorder technique - are what I would expect from a sax player occasionally playing a recorder...
I wish there were more proper recorder players with Mits' swing and jazz language skills ;)

The Recorder and Jazz becomes a blog

Since maintaining a regular web site is a difficult and time consuming task, I have decided to switch over a blogging platform, hoping it will allow for more frequent updates.
