For the Greater Groove: The Future of Strings is a collection of chats/jams with some of the leaders in the progressive string playing community. The focus is on grooving and playing rhythm strings, like rhythm guitar. Grooving is the crucial entry point into our popular musical culture and something virtually ignored in traditional classical training. Each show includes a "Groove Hacker" segment, in which we take a groove from a recording and recreate it on strings; a Groove Topic/Question for discussion; and a game called "Not My Gig", which is a 3-or-so-question trivia quiz on a subject I’m hoping my guest knows nothing about. https://www.tracysilverman.com/ https://www.StrumBowing.com

Mimi and I groove hack James Brown's "Pass the Peas" and talk about non-classical articulation and space in playing funk. We discuss the importance of other cultures and styles in string teaching and address the systemic racism in the classical string tradition. Then we see how much Mimi knows about the character Mimi in La Boheme.
