  • A while back, I arranged Snarky Puppy's Shofukan for percussion ensemble, so I asked a few other guys if they were down to play it with me, and here's what it sounds like!
    Side note: when it comes to the drum part, I tried to play a literal transcription of Larnell Lewis' playing on the album, for the personal challenge.
    We had a great time playing this piece, hope you enjoy! :)

    I have now listened to four covers of SHOFUKAN, and every one has been performed to upmost standards of professionalism, no matter the age of musicians. One rendition was performed by a group of high school students.

    Good on you for recognizing that Justin’s sublime solo could not be improved upon. Even he has never done a better version. The fact that you rendered it perfectly is an appropriate tribute.

    As a classical pianist it feels rather strange that I had never realized and appreciated how much footwork goes into playing the vibraphone. Especially considering it's also a polyphonic instrument, with a much longer resonance than the piano. It's just amazing!
    And obviously the whole ensemble is great here. Thanks, and congrats!
