Name: Beatrice- Sam Rivers by Rick Freeman
Duration: 5 min 59 s
Description: An alternative version of this lovely number by Sam Rivers that we did in a straight quaver (eighth notes ) feel with the original On It Trio that we performed and did some domestic recordings with.

hey rick. piano in this is gorgeously matched with that bass...

this melancholy transition here is very very well done

Definitely jazz...piano is solid...also enjoying the stereo mix, sometimes pushing a bass off a bit to one side is just the thing to do,,,thumb's up to this....

I missed harpsichord music, so I wrote this.  My favorite is Handel or Bach.  harpsichord music sounds very similar to Dubstep to me... for some reason.

Here is my personal favorite harpsichord song that I used to play all the time until my family screamed at me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzOYMTT_xx8&list=RDPdNjyzxqmWU&index=13

Harpsichord Concerto In H Minor

Sound Of An Orange Peeling

I Was Hanging By A Narrow Thread

A joyous Sonata in D major by D.Scarlatti 

Sonata in D - Scarlatti

Pathetique Excerpt First Mov. Beethoven

A performing musician in much demand as  a piano accompanist comfortable in both jazz and classical music styles.  He. had held many residencies and led bands in Australia and oversea. 

Recently recording in the jazz idiom in either trio or quartet form and sharing to SoundCloud. 

Rick teaches piano, clarinet and saxophone and doubles on the latter  two. 

When not teaching at school or being  the accompanist for De La Salle College or the Athenaeum Choir he is performing at jazz venues both here and soon at a new jazz club venture in Vietnam. 

He is frequently collaborating with some of Melbourne’s leading classical exponents of Lieder and more. 

Enjoy!
