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."

May 21, 2007 | What's Up with Joe Craven

JazzMando friend Joe Craven has a busy summer ahead of him. The former David Grisman Quintet percussionist/multi instrumentalist has released his laundry list of educational workshops and collaborations with some incredible artists following a week plus tour of Italy with Alison Brown. We understand a CD is in final-touch stage, a project with multi-instrumentalist Sam Bevan, and a recording in planning stages with the Joe Craven Trio.

Joe is a brilliant mandolinist and composer, always a breath of fresh air musically. He's known to captivate and thoroughly entertain at his educational workshops and festival appearances. It's no surprise his motivational-style programs on living the artful life are inspiring children to college coeds to corporate CEOs throughout the country and borders beyond.
