Getz Variations — Dexter Morrill
posted by Andrew D Meyer
Recently I’ve been working on a very interesting piece for tenor saxophone and fixed media by Dexter Morrill called “Getz Variations.” The piece was written for Stan Getz in 1984 and features samples of Stan himself playing in the audio track. The score has very little notated lines for the saxophonist to play, and instead […]
Goa Variations I
posted by Andrew D Meyer
Those who know me personally know that I have a deep affinity for the music of Terry Riley, particularly his early compositions where he’s playing saxophone and/or keyboards. (Reed Streams, Poppy Nogood and the Phantom Band, Shri Camel, Rainbow in Curved Air, Descending Moonshine Dervishes, etc.) Just today I’ve finished the first in a series […]
Hello 2020/2019 Wrap Up
posted by Andrew D Meyer
Happy New Year all! Yes, I know it’s a bit late. I closed out 2019 with three rather big and very different gigs all within a week. It was a bit crazy and I logged a lot of miles, but it was fun. I played lead alto for a made-for-tv christmas special at the Beacon […]
Touché – Clarinet Duet with Fixed Media by Christopher Hopkins
posted by Andrew D Meyer
I’ve had the opportunity to perform Christopher Hopkins duet for two clarinets and fixed media a few times recently and have really come to love the piece. Hopkins describes the piece this way: Touché is a single movement duo-concertante in a toccata style. Two clarinet soloists are united in a musical contest, between themselves and […]

I’m very pleased to share a new duo that I’ve gotten off the ground over the past few weeks. I’m playing Gypsy Jazz with Jake Eddy on guitar. We’ve played a handful of gigs in Ohio and West Virginia and have another handful on the books for the coming weeks. I had been looking for […]
This Week’s Shows 11.17.18 A long Overdue Update
posted by Andrew D Meyer
I’m back in Ohio and it’s long past time for an update! Big changes are all around this fall. I’ve left the cruise world behind…it was a good run (8+ years) and now it’s time to move on. I’m now in grad school at Ohio University, living in Athens, Ohio. I’m loving being back in […]
Andrew D. Meyer and Sonikora
posted by Andrew D Meyer
This is a video from last spring, March 10th to be specific. I meant to post this video earlier but I totally forgot. Nonetheless, this was a set that I did with the improvising trio, Sonikora at the Vanderelli Room in Columbus’s Franklinton Arts District. It was a real treat playing with these guys and […]

This itinerary is really […]
