Music

(link to lyrics written to jazz standards)

I took up percussion in my 50s. Thanks to the generosity of Seido Ray Ronci and Noah Heringman, I was able to learn by playing with these stellar musicians.

In January of 2019 we recorded a freeform session at Centro Cellar Studio in Columbia, MO as a trio, Triune. Some of those tunes are offered below (from the collection Following).

Seido Ray Ronci: Piano
Noah Heringman: Violin
Mike Barrett: Conga
(all songs are improvised primarily by Seido Ray Ronci, with Noah Heringman; I accompany.)
