Sam- you know I always loved watching you perform this piece ! Wonderful arrangement by Jerry accompanied by your complex rhythms, clarity of sound and beautiful technique. I remember watching you practice this piece.........this video brings back wonderful memories. So proud of all your work. ........ Your "Eleanor" in Berkeley
I'm not a fan of most "concert" tap, but Sam is in a class of his own. His musicality is never sacrificed simply for the sake of displaying speed- his fast taps are always melodic- perfectly articulated and maintaining a dynamic range with accenting. Most tappers just sound like someone flipped a switch on a drum machine- fast, but one long (boring) endless roll that sounds the same from beginning to end. A wonderful generous teacher as well.
Smooth beats etc. Class
