THE EVI – Meditation That Works
http://cosmicmusic.guru/the-evi
Five easy steps for the stressed-out agnostic. The instrument that you see me playing here is the Electronic Valve Instrument (EVI). It is the brainchild of my inventor friend Nyle Steiner. This see-through version was custom made for me by Nyle. You can see me in performance with David Clayton-Thomas playing the EVI here. For CD’s, more information about the EVI or to book the Hotfoot Orchestra or Heal The Universe please phone me at 416-757-7071 or visit my music website. 2016 - Meditation That Works.

You Goofed—So Ignore It | Michael Colgrass
http://colgrassadventures.com/you-goofed-so-ignore-it
A Composer's Adventures. You Goofed So Ignore It. April 3, 2015. Me performing at Tivoli in Copenhagen, 1964. We classical musicians are so rigorously trained that we feel extremely self-conscious about making mistakes in performance. Most of us find it difficult to forgive ourselves for playing a wrong note or rhythm, and missing an entrance is tantamount to a felony.
