Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

April 16, 2005 | Introducing New JazzMando Strings!!!

New from Labella, exclusively at Jazzmando.com: LABELLA JM-11 JAZZMANDO STRINGS!

I would never sell short the purity of tone and impeccable engineering of the the Thomastik TI strings. Yet, if there were any consistent criticism of the Ti's it would be price and projection. JazzMando has had the opportunity to work with Labella strings to present a specifically "Jazz" designed string. Strung low and light, their flatwound steel strings are the answer to a Maiden's Prayer for the player who plays in closed position more than open strings, as in Jazz, Swing, Classical, and Choro music.

These polished Flatwound have a much closer, tighter wrap which resists corrosion and wear from oxidation and player perspiration. The steel alloys lends a crisp "punch" for a "bell-like" attack and articulation. Player comfort from the smooth strings makes these feel as great as they sound!

Buy a set today! Click JM-11 to see about introducing yourself to these great strings.

A wonderful "Gypsy" getaway in New England this June. Mark your calendars for June 3-5 for the second annual celebration of Gypsy Jazz in the tradition of Django Reinhardt in beautiful Northampton, MA.
Guest artists include The John Jorgenson Quintet, The Stephane Wrembel Trio and one of my personal faves, Will Patton.
