She is very good. But the mellotron seemed to confuse and delight her. I think I understand what Reich was trying to do in his piece, the inteweaving or "phasing" of 2 piano lines into one, with what sounds like 2 different but close tempos. Something like that. What a memory challenge! She did it well. -Bruce D. ________________________________ From: Robert <rmrmax@yahoo.com> To: "newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com" <newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2012 5:14 PM Subject: [newmellotrongroup] Mellotron Spotting - Rachel Flowers A very talented young lady indeed. She can play anything from ELP, Coltrane, Miles, Jobim, Guaraldi, Bach, Beethoven, Corea, Reich, etc... She has a promising future ahead of her in music.
