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 14, 2006 | Q-200 Coming

Hard to be patient when you have a new instrument on the way, especially a brand new model like the Rigel Q-200 "Q-dola" we've collaborated with Rigel Instruments. (It's even tougher when you know you're going to be out of the country for a week after its arrival...)
Look for a review on this critter very soon, including eye-candy pictures and what we anticipate to be a detailed, glowing report. If it's anything like the Q-95 we developed with these master innovators, we expect a thick, full voice, and the world renown Rigel playability. Instructions forthcoming include appropriate diagrams with the Occupational Safety and Health warning "Bend slightly at knees while playing to avoid injury to back while producing intense rich, heavy sound."
