My girlfriend and I heard your Adams piece last night in Baltimore, and chatted with you briefly at the restaurant accross the street. We loved the performance and the nuance of the music and the visual juxtapositions with the
Adams shots! Wow---can't wait to hear it again! Keep up the good (multimedia) work!

Just came home from seeing you and hearing the BSO play Ansel Adams: America. I just loved it. I wanted to download the piece or purchase it, but I can't seem to find it listed anywhere? Have you recorded this terrific work? Is it available? Please advise. Congratulations

Hey Chris,

It's great to catch up on all your doings since our high school days!! Keep up the great work! I was delighted to see the Kennedy Center honor your dad on his birthday the other night -- and see you and your brothers play for him (and all of us!)!!

Just enjoying Crescent City Suite, and planning to send it with Spirit of Freedom to a couple of colleagues who should be playing your music. Have a great New Year, you, Tish and everyone else. Tim

Hi Chris,
I was thinking about your great performance on 40 Days from the Cut Above direct to Disc lp. I am too lazy to transfer this lp to my hard drive. Will it ever be released as a cd? I saw your brother Matt downtown Guelph a few weeks ago, man is he ever tall. Have you guys thought about doing any more 2 (3) generations of Brubeck collaborations?
Regards,
Mark

Hi,Chris!
I saw you yesterday on Jô Soares program and I´m still very impressed with your performance. By the way, what´s the name of that tune? Man, you´re the best BlueJazz musician I´d ever heard! I´ve got beautiful leggatos,nice vibratos and a remarkable way in playing the Blues!
Parabéns!

Hi Chris
I came across a photo of you that was taken in Wailuku on Maui circa 1974. You were touring with your dad & brothers. We visited with you all backstage as my uncle Dave van Kriedt played with your dad. Send me an email if you'd like to see the photos.
Cheers

Incidentally, if you dig through the web site www.aikenperformingartsgroup.org you will find reprints of some of the local articles about the campaign - some from national news services. Its amazing how far a good idea will travel if good people do something about it.

The volunteers here in Aiken have done just that.

Best,

Hi Chris:
I am sure you will be delighted to learn that we followed up on your suggestion and created a campaign called "Instruments in Your Attic". So far Aiken Performing Arts Group has collected more that 100 used band instruments, 6 pianos, an organ, - everything from banjos to flutes - and even a 100 year old metal clarinet. The community has pitched in and we are now trying to raise money to repair those that need it for distribution into the public schools of this county. There is no money in the County school budget for musical instruments. The instruments will become the property of the school system to be lent to young people. Included in the program is also the fledgling band program at the University of South Carolina Aiken and a new multi racial charter school. We feel great about what is happening as well you should. There are a lot of poor kids here in Aiken County who will have the opportunity to perform. All the best, Tom Hofstetter

Heard you play in Bemidji, MN - just loved it. Did not know I liked jazz until I heard Triple Play! I am trying to find a recording of the EXQUISITE piece played with the orchestra; unfortunately, I do not remember the title, but it is the classical piece used in the G.E. light bulb commercials a few years ago. I was nearly moved to tears when I heard it and would love to add it to my music collection. Thanks!

Thrilling to see you play tonight with your amazing Father, the Lion of Jazz. Memorable evening. He looks frail but his giant spirit was there. Fabulous concert. Thank You

Hi Chris, It's Helen's son. Your father will be playing in NYC on June 15th just a few blocks from my home so I will be hearing his music for the first time. Was writing to see if you'd happen to be in town with him so I could say hello. Best,
