The hairdo! The dress! That wild studio SET! But, best of all, that TENOR. (Note the audience applauds the vocal head, drowning out the first few bars of Stan's solo!!!!###***!!!) Those were the days....

Hi, Bill --
Thanks for your friendship here! I look forward to getting to know you and your music. I'm not a musician but enjoy listening!
"Margaret" is my real name -- but "adagio" came to me somehow and that part of my alter-ego won't quite leave yet. :D
have a great day and upcoming weekend!
Best of everything,
adagio

Thank you for inviting us - and the same to you; if you're ever in Norway you're more than welcome here.
Wish I could get you some concerts in Norway.

Hi.
I've been very lazy when it comes to saying hi and leaving comments here and on Myspace, but I really should have written to you a long long time ago and thanked you for what you wrote at jazz.com about the tracks from Hilde's CD's.
Thank you Bill!! Your words means a lot.
Egil :)

It's a wonderful thing being friends with a gifted musician such as yourself and also to honor a great hero of the music in Stan Getz.
Peace and love,

Profile Information

About me:
The short version: currently residing on the New Hampshire seacoast, I have lived and loved a full and generally Bohemian existence, other than the 20 years I spent raising a family, in NY and Kentucky. Always a jazz lover but a player of many styles out of necessity, I spent years on the road with one musical configuation or another, sharing the stage with a diverse bunch of singers and musicians, from R&B legends Arthur Conley, Curtis Mayfield and Eddie Floyd to jazz luminaries Gabrielle Goodman and Michael Henderson. Some of the not-so-musical legends I have played with include Sam the Sham and Dr. Hook, but, oh well...

For the last nine years or so I've devoted my time exclusively to playing and recording as a trio leader, digging the freedom and challenges that the guitar trio format offers. My latest project is taking time off to immerse myself in the technique and repertoire of the growing jazz Manouche movement. To this end I have acquired a new Dell'Arte petite bouche Django guitar, although she will never supplant my beloved D'Angelico New Yorker!

My current CD is Winds of Bodhgaya, available through Amazon.com and CD Baby (details and samples are linked through my website.)

I have long been an admirer and fan of the great Stan Getz, who I have had the privilege of meeting and hearing in the venue which suited him best- an intimate jazz club. His music will live forever.
