Thank you for sharing these super interesting and inspiring insights!

Eddie Barbash’s ears are wide open! To be able, and willing, to insert his sax into so many different musical genres is so refreshing...it’s all music and doesn’t need walls built around it. I love his work with Sam Reider(also a genre bender) and it’s so refreshing to see him playing with young old time musicians like Victor Furtado, and giving a shout out to Nate Leath. Thanks for this video...I subscribed!

Schuyler Island is an unbelievably beautiful tune!

Man, that clarinet, sax, fiddle arrangement is some of the most stellar chamber writing possible. Does Giocomo's clarinet possess a low Eb?

Any reed players that get to jam with Alex Hargreaves are fortunate indeed! You two are worthy, too, I must say.
