I missed last month's BOTM and I may miss this one too
I'm so frazzled I thought this was the BOTM thread - surely it is not! Apologies!

Hello,
here is my contribution.
The playback is BiaB 2013.
I have kept improvisation very simple, as this is practice for me not to think about certain notes at all. Whether they fit or not or the like...
What a wonderful tune BTW.
I hope you like my version.

Thanks Ian.
Not sure about where my mouse came from.
It might be the very old reed that I can't put to bed, or as you say I may have had the piece in a little far.
I hate to play on the tip.
I prefer the lower end of the horn and feel more comfortably down there in general, but am trying to get more comfortable up the top where the mouse lives.;}
Apart from using the blues scale and playing with the melody I am at a bit of a loss as to what notes to play that will work.
But on a whole am feeling slightly more confident.
Nick.

@Littlewailer - I can hear you are having fun with the new mouthpiece, nice feeling when you get something that just suits you.
As for Georgia, i can here your own style all over it, Blues-fest, attacking dynamics, harmonics and playing around with the melody. As this is a section geared at those wanting to develop i think it will be nice if you shared what your thinking and melodic ideas in your improvisation are so others here can benefit from it, i know what your musical ideas and playing style is but i think it best coming from you as the improviser on the tune to share a little with people, maybe a small break down of certain passages you played.
thanks for posting!
Ian
