Just yesterday I received my new Alto Stick (#6061). It is a Chapman Stick with
ten strings and a shorter scale, very similar to a guitar, really. Yesterday
night I just could not put it down, so I experimented with layered chords and
arpeggios. The video I recorded that night just would not sync to the audio
track, so I recorded the idea once again just some minutes ago in the early
morning.

There are many bumps in this recording, still I like it. Maybe you do, too.
