Morning Coffee Sessions

For much of 2020, I recorded short solo arrangements of my favorite jazz standards and songs that get stuck in my head while I had my coffee. I dubbed them “Morning Coffee Sessions”

It has been great creative practice, and I’ve done over 100 of them! Check them out in this playlist.
